dawniej KUPON WELNY to bylo wystarczajaco materialu na plaszcz albo garnitur, np . 2 metrowy kupon welny etc. Bela materialu to jest zrolowany ciasno material np 20to metrowa bela materialu.

Slownikowe "bolt" odstarszalo ta "definite length", wygladalo na to, ze wlasnie jest to standardowa dlugosc calej beli jaka wychodzi z przedzalni.

Czyli chyba ma Pan i trzeba uscislic moje pytanie, ktore pozostaje w mocy. Pytanie jest wiec o kawalek hurtowniczej beli, ale wciaz solidny, cztero-pieciometrowy, taki na kilkuczesciowy welniany garnitur.
Slawomir Nieciecki Dec 31, 2009:
Kupon czy bela? Kupon to odcinek materiału o niewielkiej długości, np. http://www.allegro.pl/item839409008_kupon_welny_jasny_fiolet...
Bela to rolka zwiniętego materiału o dużej długości.
IMHO kupon i bela to nie to samo.
