Středně silné bavlněné plátno typu terpolín s kvalitním lepidlem, určené k vyztužování středně silných a silných materiálů. Velmi dobře přilne k látce a nedělá bublinky. Ideální pro vyztužování vrchních vrstev korzetových látek - látka ztuhne a zpevní se. Díky tomu, že tato vložka je tkaná (a ne z netkaných textilií jako klasické vlizelíny), dodá vrchní látce navíc i pevnost v tahu, takže se látka nebude rozjíždět ve švech. Barva režná.
Pro výrobu korzetů doporučujeme nažehlovat na vrchní materiál tak, aby výsledná tloušťka a tuhost byla podobná korzetovému plátnu. Tj. ideálně nažehlujte na střední a silnější materiály, jako je například brokát. Na velmi silné materiály (bytové textilie, silný brokát apod.) doporučujeme spíše jemnější plátno, naopak pro podžehlování dupionů, saténů apod. se hodí toto i silnější nažehlovací plátno - podle toho, jak silný a tuhý má výsledný efekt být.
Látka potřebuje poměrně nízkou teplotu k nažehlení - pouze cca 95-100°C, takže se dá bez problémů nažehlit klasickou žehličkou. Nažehlovat parou pomalým plynulým pohybem od středu látky ke stranám. Postup několikrát na stejném místě opakovat. Prát na 40°C nebo chemicky čistit.
