Sewing a Box X Stitch in Webbing & Breaking Strength Formula

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

A box x stitch, is used when the webbing could be loaded in multiple directions. Stitches are made both parallel and perpendicular to the axis of the webbing, so a load in either direction will be well distributed. Also double rows of stitching at the left and right ends ensure even load distribution along the expected load axis.
This videos also provides the formula for determining how much sewing is required to achieve a desired sewing breaking strength.

    Thanks for the video. I would like to point out that you could achieve even better result by adjusting the tension. I can see the knots on the bottom and it should be in between the first and second layer. And it is important to point out the importance of stitch alignment. The weakest spot of you X-Box pattern are the stitch that are outside the square and this is exactly where it break.

    I can understand why you would want to know the breaking strength of your stitching in a sailing situation, and make that less than the breaking strength of the webbing--in order to keep expensive and critical hull anchor points from being ripped out of place, or expensive and critical sails from being shredded. But in applications such as mountaineering or arborist work, I can't think of any situation where you'd want any connections in your rigging to fail before the anchor point. So I'll use your formula to calculate a stitch length that is at least equal to the breaking strength of the material being sewn. Then x 5.

    Basting tapes have a tendency to leave a gum residue on the needle when sewing, especially with light fabrics. Although a well-adjusted machine should not be affected, run the needle through a bar of Ivory soap to help prevent build-up or use a cotton swab with rubbing alcohol to keep the needle clean.

    There's a horrendous high-pitched whine in this video during all VO. It hurts my ears. This can be solved in future productions by running a band pass filter, or at least a low pass filter around 15khz, without detracting from the audio. People with damaged hearing will never notice it, but people with good hearing (and any nearby dogs) will thank you for it.
