Bring a splash of vibrant, high-visibility color to your toughest projects with our Orange Bound Tex 90 (V-92) Performance Thread. This bonded polyester thread is formulated for unparalleled performance in harsh outdoor and marine environments. It provides a powerful, resilient stitch that you can rely on when durability matters most, making it the premier choice for projects that demand both strength and a bold aesthetic.

Engineered to combat the damaging effects of prolonged sun exposure, this marine-grade thread boasts superior resistance to UV degradation, ensuring your stitch color and strength won't fade. Furthermore, it features an advanced non-wicking treatment. This crucial finish blocks water from seeping through stitch holes, protecting your seams from moisture damage and mildew. The bonded construction ensures a remarkably smooth sewing experience, reducing shredding and breakage while maintaining uniform tension for a perfect stitch every time.

With a formidable average breaking strength of 13.3 lbs, this Tex 90 thread delivers the tensile strength needed for critical, load-bearing seams on medium to heavy-weight materials. It's the perfect match for 6 to 10 oz. fabrics, including the full range of Sunbrella® textiles, outdoor upholstery, and heavy canvas. For best results, pair with a #18 or #20 sewing machine needle. When using a Sailrite® Ultrafeed® Sewing Machine, we specifically recommend a #20 needle for optimal performance.

Whether you're crafting boat enclosures, awnings, or vibrant outdoor gear, choose the Orange Bound Tex 90 for its fusion of brilliant color and uncompromising strength. Its high-quality ply and consistent diameter mean less downtime for adjustments and more time creating beautiful, long-lasting work.

Pro Tip for Flawless Stitching: To enhance thread strength and ensure a smooth, tangle-free feed to your machine, always pull the thread from the top of the cone. This technique adds a slight, beneficial twist to the thread, which helps prevent it from unlaying and can significantly reduce tension issues.
