Maximum Performance
Understanding Yarn Strength in Synthetic Grass: C4, C6, and C8 Yarns
When choosing synthetic grass, the strength of the yarn plays a crucial role in determining its durability, resilience, and overall performance. At Green Daddy, we use high-quality yarn types—C4, C6, and C8—each designed to meet different needs based on traffic levels and application areas. Here’s a breakdown of the strengths of each yarn type:
C4 Yarn (Basic Strength)
C4 yarn offers a reliable yet basic level of durability, making it suitable for areas with light foot traffic or decorative purposes. While it may not be as resilient as higher-grade yarns, it’s an affordable choice for applications that don’t require heavy-duty performance.
C6 Yarn (Medium Strength)
A step up from C4, C6 yarn is a versatile option that provides enhanced strength and wear resistance. It is ideal for moderate-traffic areas like residential lawns, backyards, or small commercial spaces where a balance between durability and cost is key.
C8 Yarn (High Strength)
C8 yarn is engineered for maximum durability and toughness. Designed for high-traffic areas such as sports fields, playgrounds, and commercial spaces, C8 yarn offers exceptional resilience, ensuring your synthetic grass maintains its quality and appearance even with heavy use.
Strength Comparison Chart
We’ve created a simple chart to help you compare the strengths of C4, C6, and C8 yarns.
On a scale of 1 to 10:
C4 Yarn: Rated at 3, best for low-traffic applications.
C6 Yarn: Rated at 6, offering solid durability for moderate use.
C8 Yarn: Rated at 9, delivering maximum strength for high-traffic areas.
