The BioThane® Gold 300 and 100 is a high gloss and translucent TPU coated polyester webbing. It is a stiffer product yet still flexible, making it a great choice for sporting dogs. The 100 series is used for opaque colors (black) and the 300 designates translucent colors meaning you can see the webbing through the coated color. The finish has a high shine and glossy look and therefore great for pet collars and leashes, safety straps, strapping, equine, and more. It was the first product ever made at BioThane and can stand up to harsh environments and heavy use. BioThane webbing is waterproof, durable, UV resistant, weldable, and easy to clean.
Type: Gold - Standard & High Flex
Currently we stock Standard in 1" and High Flex in 3/4". This is the most common version in each width as you want a slightly more flexible material in the 3/4" width. The flexibility difference is created by using a slightly thicker TPU coating, with no change to the webbing which is what gives the strength.
