Knockout Performance: Hook & Loop in MMA Gear
High-quality fastening is essential for MMA gear that’s built to last. For manufacturers of combat sports equipment, creating products that combine strength, comfort, and longevity is a constant challenge. One leading gear manufacturer turned to HALCO to meet these demands, and the results speak for themselves.
Combat sports equipment like gloves, shin guards, focus mitts, and body pads undergo relentless cycles of use. The manufacturer needed a fastening solution that was not only strong and reliable, but one that could sustain tens of thousands of open and close operations without compromising integrity. Traditional fastening systems often fell short. They would wear prematurely, lose grip strength, fray under stress, or even be too unwieldly to use. These issues translated into failed gear, user frustration, and increased replacement costs.
HALCO partnered with the manufacturer to integrate our HALCO PRO Sew On Hook & Loop, a high-performance fastening system designed for repeat-use applications. Engineered to endure up to 10,000 open and close cycles, HALCO PRO is manufactured with precision-moulded nylon hooks and robust woven loops that maintain grip even after repeated stress. This solution proved ideal for MMA gear, where fasteners must maintain strength and positioning while withstanding rapid movement, and sudden impacts. It's also incredibly easy to use, even when wearing bulky gloves or other gear.
Since integrating HALCO PRO into their product lines, the manufacturer has seen a marked increase in product reliability. Gloves stay secure round after round and protective pads hold firm without shifting. The consistency of HALCO’s fastening system has also enhanced the user experience. Fighters and coaches can adjust gear quickly between sessions, with fasteners that remain smooth to operate yet strong under pressure.
