To achieve the same strength in a 100% cotton or even a polyester\/cotton, the thread would be as thick as string! This means that you will only have to use a \u2018jeans\u2019 needle and nothing heavier.<\/p>\n<p>Up to the very final stage of manufacture it is produced just like a traditional thread \u2013 the plies\/strands are twisted evenly together. However the big difference and the part that adds the exclusive properties, comes at the Finishing Stages. Instead of just a normal lubricant, a Bonding Agent is applied. This special substance actually adheres so closely to the thread that the plies are \u2018bonded\u2019 together.<\/p>\n<p>The coating agent completely stops any movement of the twist whilst sewing. As discussed in the First Threads In Focus, this movement of the twisted plies causes snags, snarls and ultimately snapping.<\/p>\n<p>The thread simply glides through any very stressful seam \u2013 like on fur fabric (hence \u2018teddy bear thread\u2019) and of course this means it is also ideal for vinyls, leather and heavy furnishing fabrics. In industry it is used on furniture, shoes, trainers etc.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/empressmills.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Sewing-Thread-Category-Image-16-Bonded-Nylon.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-medium wp-image-5474 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/empressmills.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Sewing-Thread-Category-Image-16-Bonded-Nylon-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Sewing Thread Category Image 16 - Bonded Nylon\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.empressmills.co.uk\/sewing-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Sewing-Thread-Category-Image-16-Bonded-Nylon-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.empressmills.co.uk\/sewing-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Sewing-Thread-Category-Image-16-Bonded-Nylon-220x165.jpg 220w, https:\/\/www.empressmills.co.uk\/sewing-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Sewing-Thread-Category-Image-16-Bonded-Nylon-460x345.jpg 460w, https:\/\/www.empressmills.co.uk\/sewing-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Sewing-Thread-Category-Image-16-Bonded-Nylon.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>UV Rays<\/h3>\n<p>This is a completely non biodegradable thread.
