Anvil 2420L - Women's Stretch Tank - Raspberry

The Anvil 2420L is the Women's Stretch Tank, a 4.3 oz fitted blank built on a 57/38/5 combed ring-spun cotton/polyester/spandex tri-blend at 40 singles. The spandex component is what separates this body from a standard cotton or CVC tank: the 5% spandex gives the fabric a four-way stretch and recovery that holds a contoured fit across the size range (XS through 2XL) without the stiffness a straight woven fabric produces after repeated washing. Self-fabric binding finishes the neckline and armholes cleanly, the double-needle bottom hem holds its shape, and the tear-away label removes the scratchy tag for resale programs. OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification covers the fabric, which matters on decorated programs sold into fitness, wellness and youth markets where chemical safety documentation is sometimes a client requirement. The color range runs 12 solids and heathers, including White, Black, Navy, Red, Hot Pink, Raspberry, Dusty Rose, Caribbean Blue, City Green, Terracotta, Heather Gray and Heather Graphite. The heather colors carry a higher poly content than the solids, which changes the decoration protocol.

The non-commodity angle on this body is the spandex and polyester content working together. The 38% polyester is high enough to cause dye migration under heat on dark and bright colors if cure or press temperatures run too high, and the 5% spandex means the ink film or transfer needs to flex with the fabric rather than sitting rigid on the surface. That combination makes DTF the most practical primary route across the full color range: the low-to-standard heat press temperature keeps migration risk low, the soft low-bulk film flexes with the spandex stretch rather than cracking at stress points, and the transfer reads clean on the high-stitch-density combed cotton face across both solids and heathers. For screen printing with plastisol, use a low-bleed ink formulated for poly-rich substrates and keep cure temperatures conservative, particularly on the dark and bright solids like Black, Navy, Hot Pink, and City Green where migration shows most visibly; the high stitch density produced by the 40 singles combed cotton face gives the ink a smoother seat than a basic open-end body, but the stretch means the ink film needs a high elongation additive or you risk cracking on a fitted garment that gets worn at stretch. For DTG, the 57% cotton content allows pre-treatment and printing, with a white underbase required on the dark grounds; the 38% poly fraction mutes the final result somewhat compared to a 100% cotton body, so DTG works but is not the standout route. For vinyl and HTV, use a flexible stretch-rated HTV at a controlled temperature and avoid rigid cut vinyl that will not move with the spandex; a standard rigid film will delaminate at the stretch points after laundering. For embroidery, the fitted contoured body with spandex stretch requires a cut-away backing to stabilize the substrate under the hoop; keep stitch counts moderate, since a dense fill on a 4.3 oz stretch tank will distort the fabric and pucker the panel.

The reorder note: the heather colors (Heather Gray and Heather Graphite) carry a higher polyester fraction than the solids, so if a program mixes solids and heathers in the same run, treat them as separate substrates for decoration purposes. Order the full quantity of each color from one lot where shade consistency across a large decorated program matters.
