What is Denier of Yarn Count? Let Salud Yarn answer your question! Salud Yarn is a China polyester and high stretch nylon factory!

In the Denier system, the yarn count number indicates the weight in grams of 9000 meters of yarn. The unit symbol is D. 

For instance, 30 D indicates that 9000 meters of yarn weight 30 grams.

The larger the value, the thicker the fiber or yarn. For example, the 70 D yarn is thicker than the 40 D yarn because in the same length, the 70 D yarn is heavier, so it must be thicker.

Just remember, in the Yarn Denier System, the larger the value, the thicker the fiber or yarn.
