Wool tops are carded or combed wool fibres aligned parallel, typically 40-100 microns in diameter, used as raw material for worsted yarn production in textiles and knitting industries. Second quality tops contain minor imperfections, neps, or vegetable matter, offering cost savings versus premium grades. International trade grades follow micron counts (64s, 60s, 56s) and staple length classifications. Australia, New Zealand, and China dominate global production and exports, with significant supplies from Argentina and Uruguay. Buyers should verify actual fibre diameter via test certificates, as subjective visual grading can mask significant performance variations affecting downstream yarn quality and processing efficiency.
