Polyester Pull Cord – Reliable Pulling Solutions for Plisse Screen Systems
Polyester Pull Cord Overview
Designed specifically for plisse (pleated) insect screen systems, our polyester-based pull cords ensure smooth opening and closing, consistent tension stability, and long-term durability. We offer two material variants to support different system requirements: 100% Polyester and PET (Polyester + PE Core) .
Both options are developed with a system-oriented approach, ensuring seamless integration with pleated mesh and folding mechanisms.
Key Applications:
- Pleated retractable screen windows and doors
- Sliding & folding screen mesh systems
- DIY replacement cords
- Tension cords for screen frames and track channels
Two Variants of Polyester Pull Cord
Variant 1 - 100% Polyester Pull Cord
Made from high-tenacity industrial-grade polyester fiber, this is the most widely used pull cord for standard plisse screen systems. It delivers reliable performance with excellent dimensional stability and moderate tensile strength.
Key Advantages:
- High tensile strength with low elongation – maintains consistent tension over time
- Excellent abrasion resistance – withstands repeated daily operation
- UV and weather resistant – suitable for indoor and outdoor applications
- Smooth surface finish – minimizes friction through guide channels
- Cost-effective – ideal for high-volume production and standard projects
Typical Specifications:
| Material | 100% Polyester |
| Diameter | 0.8mm |
| Length per Spool | 500m, 1000m, 1500m |
| Color Options | black, gray, customized |
| Packaging | Tangle-free spools, 20 rolls/carton |
Variant 2: PET Pull Cord (Polyester + PE Core)
This advanced pull cord combines a high-strength polyester braided outer layer with a PE inner core. The hybrid structure delivers enhanced tensile strength and superior durability, making it ideal for premium plisse systems and applications requiring extra reliability.
Key Advantages:
- Reinforced strength – PE inner core provides additional tensile force, reducing breakage risk
- Hybrid construction – 16+1 strand configuration (16 polyester strands + 1 PE core) for optimized performance
- Enhanced durability – superior resistance to wear, fraying, and deformation
- Smooth operation – maintains consistent diameter and roundness for glitch-free movement
- Long service life – withstands high-frequency usage without performance degradation
Typical Specifications:
| Material | Polyester + PE Core (PET) |
| Diameter | 0.7mm |
| Length per Spool | 500m, 1000m, 1500m |
| Color Options | black, gray, customized |
| Packaging | Tangle-free spools, 20 rolls/carton |
Key Performance Features
- Smooth & Snag-Free Movement – Ultra-slippery surface ensures effortless operation without catching or sticking in guide channels.
- High Tensile Strength – Engineered to withstand repeated tension cycles without breaking or stretching.
- Weather & UV Resistant – Stable performance under direct sunlight, high heat, and cold temperatures.
- Zero Shape Deformation – No shrinking, expansion, or stretching over time; maintains precise fit.
- Tangle-Free Packaging – Precision wound on spools for efficient production line integration.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between 100% polyester and PET pull cord?
A: 100% polyester cord is a single-material braid offering reliable performance at a cost-effective price. PET cord features a polyester braid with a PE inner core (16+1 construction), providing higher tensile strength and enhanced durability for premium or high-frequency applications.
Q: Can I use these pull cords for replacement in existing plisse screens?
A: Yes. Both cords are designed to be compatible with standard plisse screen mechanisms. Please confirm the required diameter and length for proper fit.
Q: Do you supply pull cord and pleated mesh together?
A: Yes. We offer both materials as individual components or as a coordinated set to ensure system compatibility.
Q: Are these cords suitable for outdoor use?
A: Yes. Both variants offer excellent UV resistance and weather durability, making them suitable for outdoor applications.
Q: Do you support OEM / private labeling?
A: Yes. OEM cooperation, custom spool sizes, colors, and private labeling are all supported.
