What type of bangs to choose?
There are several types of mop depending on the broom holder you are going to use or that you already use. A distinction must be made between velcro supports, foldable clip supports, foldable pressure or pocket supports.
The fringes are now multi-function (dual pocket and tab function) thus reducing the number of references to maintain even if you have different washing systems.
Velcro fringe support
For Velcro backings, the fringe type is a fringe with a Velcro back. In this case the spinning will be manual in the majority of cases because jaw or roller presses cannot be used.
Foldable bangs holder snap clip or pocket
In the case of folding supports with "speedy" type clips, it will be necessary to hang fringes with tabs. The clip system then allows the use of spinning via a jaw press or a roller press without removing the fringe from the support. To date, fringes are often compatible with pocket supports and clip supports. The foldable supports are with clips or snaps. In both cases the fringe remains attached to the support during the spinning phase.
In the case of pressure support, specific pressure fringes must be taken.
In the case of the pocket support there is no mechanical spinning possible. The bangs must be removed from the holder to be changed or wrung manually.
Fringe qualities
Once the type of fringe and support has been chosen, all that remains is the quality of the fringe. a fringe is made of a polyester fiber and polyamide composition. The polyester fiber will promote sliding on the ground . Some fringes are fitted with polypropylene strips (fringe having a striped appearance) which will have the effect of presenting a scratchy appearance if the surface does not require it. Microfiber fringes cannot withstand bleach or fabric softeners when washing.
The fringes are in some cases provided with small colored tabs (blue, red, green, yellow) which can be cut individually. The objective is to identify a fringe per location as for dishcloths with the implementation of color codes.
Polyester microfiber composition why?
The composition of the fringe will determine its absorption characteristics but also its ergonomics.
Indeed , a fringe largely made of microfiber will have a very high wet weight absorption capacity but you risk generating a "suction cup" effect of the fringe on the floor.
This will have the effect of making it "handy" and quickly tiring to use the bangs.
This is why a polyester part (either in a mix or in a strip) in the composition of the fringe will solve this problem by providing additional glide and sometimes a scratching characteristic.
