Plymouth, MS — Eastex Products, a leading supplier of engineered textile solutions, today announced the launch of TEK AIR® SD/HT, a high-tenacity, solution-dyed nylon fabric engineered to deliver superior durability, weldability, and waterproof performance across a wide range of demanding applications.
Tek Air® SD/HT is a solution dyed (SD), high tenacity (HT) nylon fabric with a durable TPU coating engineered for RF welding to form fully sealed seams. Solution dyeing locks color into the fiber for superior UV and fade resistance while maintaining consistent appearance over time. The fabric also delivers excellent abrasion and stain resistance, easy cleanability, and a flexible, waterproof TPU barrier.
"Tek Air® SD/HT represents a significant advancement in high-performance coated fabrics," said Troy Kilfoyl, Vice President/General Manager. "By combining solution-dyed nylon with a flexible, waterproof TPU barrier, we're giving manufacturers a material platform that delivers both long-term durability and consistent aesthetic performance across multiple product configurations."

- SKU: 22091 — 100% 840D high tenacity solution dyed nylon with 9 mil TPU coating
These options allow manufacturers to select the appropriate balance of weight, strength, and durability based on their specific end-use application.
