Tackle your toughest sewing projects with the formidable strength of Bound Tex 90 (V-92) Bonded Polyester. Now available in a classic Brown, this thread offers a perfect blend of robust performance and a rich, earthy aesthetic. It’s the go-to choice for applications where both supreme durability and a traditional color palette are required, from marine upholstery and boat covers to rugged outdoor equipment.

As a Tex 90 thread, it is specifically designed for sewing medium to heavy-weight materials like 6-10 oz. canvases, vinyl, and outdoor acrylics. It boasts a tensile strength averaging 13.3 lbs, ensuring your seams won't fail under stress. For optimal performance, we recommend a #18 or #20 machine needle. When sewing with the heavy-duty Sailrite® Ultrafeed® Sewing Machine, a #20 needle will yield the most consistent and professional stitch.

The thread’s exceptional performance starts with its bonded construction, which fuses the polyester filaments together to create a single, unified strand. This process virtually eliminates fraying and splitting as the thread passes through the machine, allowing for higher sewing speeds and reduced frustration. Furthermore, it's treated to be highly resistant to UV rays and mildew, making it a reliable choice for items left permanently outdoors.

A crucial feature for any outdoor thread is its ability to resist water absorption. Our Bound Tex 90 is finished with a non-wicking agent that prevents moisture from traveling along the thread and through stitch holes, keeping interiors dry and preventing rot. Choose this high-performance Brown thread for confidence that your craftsmanship is protected by a product engineered for the long haul, in any weather.

Sewing Tip: Always ensure the thread comes off the top of the cone. This adds a slight reinforcing twist, which not only strengthens the thread but also helps it lay flat and maintain even tension for a perfect seam appearance.
