Product Overview

4080 low melting point gray | 4D*51MM

Specifications can be customized

Our 4D*51MM Grey 4080 Low Melting Bicomponent Staple Fiber (ES Fiber) is a professional thermobondable sheath-core fiber designed for thermal bonding nonwoven industry. Featured with 4080 classic sheath-core structure and in-situ mass dyed grey tone, this fiber can form stable self-bonded fabric after heating without additional adhesives. It is the preferred raw material for grey hard wadding, filter felts, automotive sound absorption materials and various thermally bonded nonwoven products.

Common low melting fibers rely on post-dyeing process, which often leads to uneven color, color transfer and fading risks. Our grey low melting fiber adopts melt mass coloration technology. Color pigment is evenly dispersed inside fiber polymer during spinning. The grey shade keeps consistent among different batches, greatly saving downstream dyeing procedures and lowering wastewater treatment cost.

Core Advantages
1. Standard 4080 Sheath-Core Bicomponent Structure, Reliable Thermal Bonding

Adopts classic 4080 sheath-core design. The outer sheath melts at low temperature under proper heating, while the inner polyester core maintains original fiber strength and framework structure. After cooling, fibers interconnect firmly to form stable three-dimensional network. No extra glue or adhesive is needed, avoiding volatile chemical additives.

2. Mass Dyed Grey Color, Stable Color Consistency, No Fading

Grey pigment is added into polymer melt during spinning (mass coloration), instead of post-dyeing. Color uniformity between batches is excellent, hardly color difference. The finished nonwoven products resist fading under regular usage. Perfect for grey finished products to skip secondary dyeing and reduce production cost.

3. 4D Medium Denier + 51mm Standard Length, Excellent Process Adaptability

4D medium denier delivers balanced rigidity and toughness. 51mm universal staple length is widely compatible with carding machines, air-laid and thermal bonding production lines. Fibers have great cohesion for uniform web formation, low fly waste, supporting long-time continuous high-speed manufacturing.

4. High Bond Strength, Build Stiff & Dimensionally Stable Nonwoven Material

After thermal treatment, cross-point bonding between fibers provides outstanding structural stability. The thermally bonded wadding owns good hardness, compression resistance and anti-deformation capacity. Products will not loose easily under long-term compression, ideal for hard wadding, filter media and sound-absorbing materials.

5. Wide Compatibility, Mix Freely with Regular Polyester Staple

Can be blended with conventional hollow fiber, solid polyester fiber according to different stiffness requirements. Manufacturers can adjust mixing proportion to control product hardness, air permeability and resilience, realizing diversified product grades from semi-hard to rigid nonwoven materials.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What does 4080 mean for low melting bicomponent fiber?
A1: 4080 stands for sheath-core volume ratio 40% sheath / 60% core. The sheath melts for bonding, and core retains fiber strength to support nonwoven structure.
Q2: Is the grey color easy to fade after heating?
A2: We adopt melt mass coloration instead of surface dyeing. Pigment is embedded inside fiber, effectively avoiding fading or color migration during thermal bonding process.
Q3: Can this 4D*51mm grey low melting fiber be mixed with normal polyester fiber?
A3: Yes. It can be blended with common polyester staple. You can change mixing percentage to control the hardness, stiffness and air permeability of final nonwoven products.
Q4: Which production equipment fits this fiber?
A4: Perfectly matched with carding machine, air-laid equipment, hot oven thermal bonding production lines. No major equipment modification required for mass production.
Q5: Can you adjust the grey shade according to customer samples?
A5: Yes. We support customized grey depth and tone based on physical sample requirements.
Q6: Can I get free samples for thermal bonding testing?
A6: Small test samples are provided free of charge for lab inspection, carding trial and hot bonding test (freight collect).
