Anso-Tex® Chafe Guard is a light weight tubular cloth made of a special abrasion-resistant nylon. This type of chafe guard is known under several trade names such as cordura, shark skin and ballistic nylon. It is the lightest weight chafe protection and has excellent snag resistance due to its tight weave. Due to the light weight it does not offer as much protection or last as long as braided chafe guard under severe chafe conditions. Features of Anso-Tex® Chafe Guard are: lightest weight, excellent snag resistance, easy to handle, and good protection from UV.
