This high-quality waxed polyester thread is designed specifically for leatherwork and other hand-sewing projects that require high abrasion resistance and tensile strength. The synthetic polyester fiber ensures excellent resistance to weather, moisture, and UV radiation, and the thread will not rot or decay, even under demanding conditions.
The wax coating on the thread binds the strands tightly together, preventing fraying and making it easier to pass the thread through the needle's eye and the leather. The resulting stitching is even and firm. Thanks to the polyester material, the thread ends can be finished neatly and securely by lightly melting them with a heat tool or a lighter.
