  • Multibundle yarn with reduced torsions
    Patent number: 8402733
    Abstract: A yarn (100) comprising two or more bundles (110, 120, 130), each of said bundles comprising at least thirty metal fibres (140) is described. The bundles of the yarn are twisted with one another with a predetermined number of torsions per meter, said predetermined number of torsions permeter is smaller than 80 per meter and larger than 10 per meter. By doing so, an improved flexlife of the yarn can be obtained.
