    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_textile_measurement

    Fabric weight is measured in grams per square metre or g/m 2 (also abbreviated as GSM). GSM is the metric measurement of the weight of a fabric—it is a critical parameter for any textile product. The weight may affect density, thickness and many physical properties of the fabric, such as strength.

    For wool blend fabric descriptions, the word Super is not permitted. Subject to the wool content being at least 45%, the S number may be used. [2] The S-number indicates the thickness of the fibre as defined in the IWTO Super S Code of Practice. [3] Each S-number correlates to a maximum fibre diameter measured in micrometers, as shown in the ...

    Fabric "weight" is often specified as mass per unit area, grams per square meter (gsm) or ounces per square yard. It is also sometimes specified in ounces per yard in a standard width for the particular cloth. One gram per square meter equals 0.0295 ounces per square yard; one ounce per square yard equals 33.9 grams per square meter.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cotton_duck

    The grade of numbered duck refers to the number of ounces subtracted from 19 for a 36-by-22-inch piece of fabric. For example, a piece of No. 8 numbered duck with dimensions of 36 by 22 inches weighs 11 ounces (310 g) (19 − 8 = 11). [5] Number duck classifications per linear yard, 22 inches wide

  7. Yarn weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yarn_weight

    The number of wraps will act as a gauge to assess the thickness of unmarked yarn; for example 12 wraps per inch is 12 WPI, and is used to calculate how much yarn is required for various articles, [3] so that 12 is equivalent to 8 ply (worsted weight, medium weight) yarn.

  8. Thinsulate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thinsulate

    The thermal resistance R-value provided by Thinsulate products varies by the specific thickness and construction of the fabric. [12] Values (US units) range from 1.6 for 80-gram fabric to 2.9 for 200-gram fabric. [13] Thinsulate is considered "the warmest thin apparel insulation" available.
