Sewing a Box X Stitch in Webbing & Breaking Strength Formula
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 фев 2019
- 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.

I wish all sewing tutorials were like this
Today we will be discussing the difference between a shirt sleeve, a raglan, and a sports sleeve, specifically why different types of movement require different sleeves. We will calculate the pull on all stitches when arms are raised...
Another excellent video and something I have pondered how to do. The thought of making custom straps vs attempting to cobble something together from premade is liberating.
Another great and informative video from Salrite. What a resource and company.
I'm about to make a replacement pendant for our dog's car harness, and searched for information on how to sew the webbing we got for the purpose. Of course, Sailrite had this vid up. Thank you!
شكرا Sailrite
أنتم رائعون.
Thanks Sailrite
You are great.
I wasn't even really looking for this video but I ended up learning something new, great video!!
Loving every single video tutorial you upload, subscribed
Thanks for your positive comments and subscribing!!!!
Quantitative explanation of a box X stitch!!!! Awesome! Thank You!
Glad it was helpful!
Didn't expect to see How Not To on this channel. Color me impressed
It was cool seeing that How Not To Highline did the testing for this. Small world.
Yeah i was like "that machine looks familiar" then he spoke 😅
@@robertito_dobbs Same thing I thought
Very detailed explanation, great video.
Thanks for another great video and your new catalogs I received yesterday.
You are welcome! I hope you enjoy the new catalogs. For those who want a FREE catalog please click here: www.sailrite.com/catalog-request
This video is awesome.
Awesome video!
Perfect. Now I can figure required stitching to properly secure purse handles. Hope to locate a similar explanation for rivet strength. Thank you. Love your channel and products!
We are glad to help!
Well done! Thanks.
what a good video.
Good job. Nice and clear information.
Thank you for your kind words! I really appreciate the feedback.
The best!
This was super informative for a beginner tactical seamstress 😅
Glad it was helpful!!!!
I love @hownottohighline beak testing videos.
Did he do the test?
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 remember a time when climbing gear was sold with these splices, and they used two in series on slings. Depends what working loads one is designing for, though.
Doe anyone know how i could go about printing smal numbers and horizontal lines on the nylon
Ryan from hownot2highline, definitely not the crossover episode I was expecting.
I used to see leather nailbags (toolbelt) with saddlery stitching by hand. Double stitching on damaged areas. My nailbags would fall apart in other areas and still I can't push a screwdriver through my stitching! Lol. If I see it stronger? Is that a problem? I'm paranoid! Cheers from Australia
The machine serilite is the best whether is possible for jinnsand cloth
Whats that last thing you used to cut the thread
Can you do this with bartack stitching to figure out the formula? Bartack stitching seems to be stronger than the "x-square" pattern.
We wrote a great blog to calculate the breaking strength. Here is the link: www.sailrite.com/How-to-Sew-Webbing-Loops
Very informative video, thanks for sharing. Were can I get a sewing machine like that?

ole Johnsonville fingers is telling us his sewing secrets again. lol
Bruh 😂
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.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! It's always interesting to consider different applications and their specific requirements when it comes to stitching strength.
how do you guys find the time to film, edit and publish all of these tutorials when you are trying to run a substantial size business at the same time? great quality and excellent communication as usual.
The DIY videos help to sell our supplies and tools. So they are well worth the work. Thanks!!!
He did it in one take and then he went and saved a runaway baby carriage, pulled a lady out from in front of a bus, and then petted a dog.
@@SailriteDIY this company has raised the bar for sure. And the new channel is excellent
. Organized and useful 👍
Well done Matt. I assume a longer box "X" would add some extra strength and/or "double" sewing the box "X" would also?
Yes, making the box x longer or larger would add extra strength. Sewing another box x under the first would also do the same double the strength.
@@SailriteDIY plz show image. U mean just another box X closer to the hook ?
do i need a special sewing machine or foot like you have in the video my sewing machine struggles to feed the webbing
If your current sewing machine will not feed webbing a walking foot sewing machine would be very helpful in accomplishing that task. This type of foot is mechanical, it can not be simply added to a non-walking foot machine.
For such a nice machine the stitching looked a bit loose..great info tho!!
You ever put a twist in the loop? It makes it easier to thread the sail tie.
Yes, that is often done.
Helloo i was working in the past for a company named Spec up specializing in back pack for military personal i work thear for 20 years material that we use cordura 1000 i have a sewing shop with 12 sewing machine for heavy bags ans gun holster belts abd many many moore items ...❤❤😊
That's impressive! Working for 20 years in a company specializing in backpacks for military personnel must have given you a wealth of experience. It's great to see that you have your own sewing shop now.
Great video. Only thing holding it back is Freedom Units.
Yeah, I was hoping they would have done metric as well.
What is the tool you have used to melt the thread, please?
It is found here: www.sailrite.com/Sailrite-Battery-Operated-Thread-Burner
Will the basting tape gum up the sewing machine needle?
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.
@@SailriteDIY thank you very much for taking the time to respond to me. I’m completely new to the sewing game ;) I bought a sewing machine to make my own canvas wall tent. I’ve been watching a lot of your videos for tips and tricks; one being part #129 and another being a full flat felled seem! I have to figure out which sewing machine needle I should use on the 10oz canvas I bought.
@@JohnDylan85 Size #20 needle with a V-92 Polyester thread.
is there somewhere I can find the formula in metric ?
Simply use an inches to metric calculator on Google.
After running all the calculations and backchecking it against each other I found out that the formula is in fact exactly the same, just replace imperial with metric. So;
Stitches per centimeter * thread strength (in kg) * 1,5 = minimum breaking strength (in kg) per cm of stitching.
Can you hand stitch and what if it's 2" webbing.. Im Makin a climbing belt
Yes, you can sew it by hand and you can use 2" webbing.
@@SailriteDIY would I take formula and do it for 2"? Thank you for your response
looks can be deceiving, but it looked like the knots didn't bury on the ends. Check 6:18.
Does it matter what kind of thread you use?
Yes, the thread strength must be used in your calculation, as shown at 1:38min. V-92 Polyester has a thread strength of about 15 lbs.
@@SailriteDIY thank you
Do you need an industrial sewing machine?
Tedious!
They just handed you the technique and calculations on a silver platter. The only thing they didn’t do is come to your house and do the job for you!
Don't I need a special needle that doesn't cut the threads for webbing
Use a Round Point (Sharp Needle). Do not use a DI or SD1 needle. For more on needles click this link: www.sailrite.com/Selecting-a-Sewing-Machine-Needle
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.
