The original specification for ballistic nylon was an 18 ounce nylon fabric made from 1050 denier high tenacity nylon yarn in a 2×2 basket weave.Today the term is often used to refer to any nylon fabric that is made with a “ballistic weave”, typically a 2×2 or 2×3 basket weave.It can be woven from nylon yarns of various Denier such as 840 denier and 1680 Denier. Denier refers to the weight, not the strength, of the fabric.
