Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this iron-on hem tape work on all types of pants fabric?

A: This iron-on hem tape is designed primarily for denim jeans and polyester-blend trousers. It bonds well with most woven fabrics. For delicate or very lightweight fabrics, test on a small area first and use the lower end of the recommended temperature range (around 130°C).

Q: Is the bond permanent after ironing?

A: Yes — once applied with a steam iron at the correct temperature, the adhesive creates a strong, durable bond suitable for everyday wear. For best results, allow the hem to cool completely before wearing or washing.

Q: Can I wash the pants after applying this hem tape?

A: Absolutely. The iron-on bond is wash-resistant. For longest-lasting results, turn garments inside out and wash on a gentle cycle with cool to warm water.

Q: What is the width of this hem tape?

A: The tape is 2.5 cm wide, making it ideal for standard trouser and jeans hem widths. The length depends on the size/quantity option you select.
