A device (1), a sinker arrangement (5) and a method for loop-forming are described. The device (1) may include a cylinder (2) with first grooves (3) for needles (4) accommodated in a first groove (3), whereby the needles (4) include a loop forming section, and a sinker ring (27) with second grooves (15) for the sinker arrangement (5). The sinker arrangement (5) may include an actuating section (12) and a loop forming section (7). The loop forming section (7) includes an opening (11), and the sinker arrangements (5) are accommodated in one single second groove (15). The opening (11) may be delimited in the width direction (x) by two side faces (23) and the loop forming section of the needle (4) is movably disposed between the two side faces (23) of the opening (11).

A method of making a loop fastener product features knitting, such as by circular knitting, a pile yarn and one or more ground yarns to form a stretchable knit fabric having loops of the pile yarn extending from a knit ground, with the ground yarns including polymers of differing melt temperatures. The knit fabric is then held in a desired state while the fabric is set by first applying sufficient heat to cause the lower melt temperature resin to flow into interstices of the fabric ground, and then allowing the fabric to cool. The cooled fabric ground is less stretchable in two orthogonal directions after setting than before setting, has a greater air permeability after setting than before setting, and has hook-engageable pile loops extending from bound interstices.

The invention relates to a textile machine tool part (11) that is used in textile processing in a textile machine and to a method for producing same. The textile machine tool part (11) has a tool core (16) made of a core material and is coated, at least in part, with a wear-resistant coating. The wear-resistant coating (17) is applied to a core surface (18) that has a first microstructure (19). The first microstructure (19) is preferably created using electrochemical etching in the core surface (18). The wear-resistant coating (17) applied thereto is preferably applied directly to at least a section of the core surface (18) having the first microstructure (19) using electrochemical deposition and has a layer thickness of a maximum of 20 μm.
