Sisal fiber is derived from the leaves of the sisal plant. It is usually obtained by machine decortications in which the leaf is crushed between rollers and then mechanically scraped. The fiber is then washed and dried by mechanical or natural means. The dried fiber represents only 4 % of the total weight of the leaf. Once it is dried the fiber is mechanically double brushed. The lustrous strands, usually creamy white, average from 80 to 120 cm in length and 0.2 to 0.4 mm in diameter. Sisal fiber is fairly coarse and inflexible. It is valued for cordage (ropes, baler, binder twines, etc.) use because of its strength and durability. The higher-grade fiber after treatment is converted into yarns and used by the carpet industry. Sisal fiber is fairly coarse and inflexible. It is valued for cordage use because of its strength, durability, ability to stretch, affinity for certain dyestuffs and resistance to deterioration in saltwater.
