And i think you can see where i m going with this.
Carpet oz weight.
Judging carpet quality.
The misleading carpet is the more durable carpet right.
Don t use one factor alone as an indicator of a carpet s overall quality.
The misleading carpet has a 40 oz face weight and the durable carpet has a 35oz face weight.
The best level weighs in at 63 oz.
Most carpets have a face weight somewhere between 20 ounces and 100 ounces but the average face weight for a residential carpet is about 35 to 60 ounces.
A higher face weight means more yarn says grable and more yarn makes for a longer lasting product as an example within one product line the good level carpet has a face weight of 40 oz.
Berber for example is most likely going to outperform a 28 oz.
The last consideration is face weight weight of the carpet pile per square yard.
You look into it more and the misleading carpet fibers are twice as tall as the durable carpet.
Fiber face weight is not the same as total carpet weight which includes the weight of the carpet backing and the fiber face weight.
