Strap Alternative?
#1
Strap Alternative?
I have an Evora Nasal & P30i and alternate between the 2.

I've been using the headgear attachment from the Dreamwear mask on my p30i which has allowed it to sit nicer on my head (happy days!).

Now the headstraps on my masks are starting to wear, and looking at replacement ones is criminal for price for what appears to be just some pieces of fabric with some velcro.

I'm looking around to try and see if there might be an alternative, or more specifically - what fabric these are made out of so i can just get some velcro and sew to the fabric and make my own for a few bucks. Anyone have any clue? I need a seamstress to identify the material !

Thanks!

RE: Strap Alternative?
a quick google search says "Headgear Polyurethane Foam, Nylon / Spandex" for dreamwear nasal mask. Guessing spandex is what you're looking for but i'm not a seamstress!

looking a bit more into into it isn't pure spandex but some mixed nylon/spandex fabric. apparently widely used (but expensive) fabric with many different nylon ratios from 50% to 85% nylon.
