This 1680D FR ballistic polyester is a custom heavy woven fabric for B2B programs that need high abrasion resistance, PU waterproofing and flame-retardant performance in one construction. It is commonly specified for premium luggage, tool bags, tactical-style packs, reinforcement panels and other abrasion-prone outdoor or industrial components.

Key specs (typical; confirm before sampling)

• Yarn count: 1680D × 1680D

• Base: 100% recycled polyester (rPET)

• Type: Ballistic fabric (heavy woven)

• Finish: PU coating + flame-retardant treatment

• Typical finished weight: about 400gsm (customizable approx. 380–520gsm)

• Width: 57/58" (other widths on request)

• Supply type: Make-to-Order

Why buyers choose 1680D FR ballistic

• Heavier yarn body than 600D/900D for tougher luggage and bag panels

• Ballistic-style weave supports high abrasion and tear resistance

• PU coating supports rain protection for outdoor and industrial end uses

• FR finish can be developed to the buyer’s target test method and acceptance criteria

• Color, hand feel, coating build and water-resistance target are adjustable

Typical applications

• Premium luggage and reinforcement panels

• Fire-resistant tool bags, equipment bags and duffel bags

• Tactical-style packs and gear covers

• Outdoor covers and shelter-related heavy panels

• Industrial bags and abrasion-prone components (when FR + waterproof are required)

Before bulk production

Please confirm: target FR standard/test method, hydrostatic-pressure target, color (lab dip), usable width, and packaging. Final compliance depends on the exact yarn, density, color, coating and finish of the production lot.

FAQ — 1680D Flame-Retardant Polyester Ballistic Fabric with PU Coating

Q1. What is 1680D polyester ballistic fabric?

A1. 1680D polyester ballistic fabric is a heavy woven construction made from thick polyester filament yarns. Compared with 600D or 900D Oxford, it usually offers higher abrasion resistance and a tougher hand for premium luggage, tool bags and reinforcement panels.

Q2. What is the hydrostatic head / waterproof rating?

A2. With PU coating on the back side, water resistance is customizable. Common buyer targets for outdoor covers and heavy-duty bags are around ≥ 8000 mmH₂O or ≥ 10000 mmH₂O. Please confirm your target hydrostatic pressure before sampling; final performance depends on coating build and finishing.

Q3. Is this fabric made from recycled polyester? Do you have GRS certification?

A3. Yes. The base fabric is 100% recycled polyester (rPET). GRS documentation can be discussed according to the confirmed construction and order requirements.

Q4. What are the typical applications for this 1680D FR ballistic fabric?

• Premium luggage and reinforcement panels

• Fire-resistant tool bags, equipment bags and duffel bags

• Tactical-style packs and gear covers

• Outdoor covers and shelter-related heavy panels

• Industrial bags and abrasion-prone components (when FR + waterproof are required)

Q5. Which flame-retardant standards can this fabric be tested to?

A5. Testing may be arranged according to ASTM D6413/D6413M, CPAI-84, NFPA 701 or another customer-specified method, depending on the end use. Final compliance must be verified on the exact color, coating and construction ordered. These methods are not interchangeable.

Q6. How do I verify flame-retardant performance before a bulk order?

A6. We can support:

• Existing test-report reference (when available for a comparable construction)

• Small sample / yardage for your own lab testing

• Third-party pre-shipment inspection on the agreed production lot

Please confirm the target standard/method first.

Q7. What is the typical weight and width?

A7. Typical finished weight is about 400gsm (customizable approx. 380–520gsm). Standard width is 57/58"; other widths can be discussed.

Q8. Are swatch samples free?

A8. Swatch / A4 / hanger samples are usually free. International shipping is paid by the customer.

Q9. What are MOQ, lead time and payment terms?

A9. Usual MOQ depends on the confirmed construction and colorway (often discussed from about 1000m/color). Bulk lead time is commonly about 15–20 days after first-lot confirmation. Payment: TT / L/C.
