The ICI / Mace Snag Tester is equipped with a comprehensive rating system that assists in helping manufacturers evaluate the performance of their fabrics, particularly in terms of snagging resistance. After the fabric has been subjected to the controlled snagging process within the tester, it is compared against standard reference fabrics that represent various levels of snagging severity. This comparison allows the fabric to be assigned a specific snagging rating.

This rating provides manufacturers with a clear, quantifiable measure of how the fabric will perform under real-world conditions, especially in high-traffic applications such as clothing and upholstery. By understanding the fabric’s snagging resistance, manufacturers can make informed decisions about material selection, making certain that they choose fabrics that meet the necessary durability standards for their intended use. This rating system is vital for maintaining product quality and customer satisfaction in industries where fabric durability is of utmost importance.
