9 Horse Hair
The long, lustrous hair from the tails and manes of horses. Cleaning, dressing and curling operations are carried on at many points, but the production of horse-hair textiles is confined virtually to the West of England. The hair is woven to make carriage and furniture seatings, interlinings, flesh rubbers, rugs and carpets. In Bradford some success has attended attempts to use horse hair as a core for worsted yarn for interlinings. In Worcester an old-established firm has succeeded in making a continuous thread of horse hair, which is then used as weft, in combination with a cotton or worsted warp. Horse-hair lining cloths are manufactured in Philadelphia (U.S.A.), the material is also worked in Germany, notably at Leipzig. Horse hair is sorted over suction screens, and is dyed black with logwood. The hair is curled by being twisted into a rope, soaked two hours in water, and then baked for twelve hours at 350 deg. F. The hair is left for three days to cool. Long white uncurled hairs are used for violin bows and shorter hairs of the same colour for brushes and plumes. Fishing lines are made from the brown hair, and selected lustreless hair is used for lawyers' wigs. The United Kingdom, North and South America, Australia, Germany, Russia and China are the chief sources of supply. -
