Type 4B

Z-shaped coils and bends

Follows a compact path of sharp bends and angles rather than round loops.

Pattern is one part of the picture. You may have more than one pattern on the same head. Thickness, density, porosity, and care history can change how any type looks and behaves.

What to notice

  • Z-shaped bends
  • Angular compact pattern
  • Less visibly round than 4A

A useful comparison

More angular than 4A; 4C has the least consistently visible repeated pattern.
