Discover the superior strength and sleek finish of our Silver Bound Tex 90 (V-92) Performance Thread. This premium bonded polyester thread is the ultimate solution for outdoor, marine, and heavy-duty upholstery projects where both durability and aesthetics are paramount. Its versatile silver hue complements a wide range of modern fabric colors, delivering a professional-grade stitch that is built to last.

Engineered with advanced bonding technology, this Tex 90 thread glides effortlessly through your sewing machine, offering exceptional resistance to fraying and splitting during high-speed sewing. The bonding agent ensures a smooth, consistent feed and helps maintain perfect tension for strong, beautiful seams. This thread is specifically designed to combat the harsh effects of the elements, featuring remarkable resistance to UV radiation, which prevents strength loss and color fading after prolonged sun exposure.

Built for the most challenging environments, this thread's specialized non-wicking treatment blocks moisture from penetrating seams, making it an essential choice for boat enclosures, awnings, outdoor furniture, and sail covers. Its resistance to mildew, rot, and abrasion ensures your projects will stand the test of time. With a formidable average tensile strength of 13.3 lbs, you can be confident in the security and longevity of every seam.

For optimal results, use this Tex 90 thread on medium to heavy-weight fabrics ranging from 6 to 10 oz., including acrylic and marine-grade canvases like Sunbrella®. We recommend a size #18 or #20 sewing machine needle. For users of the Sailrite® Ultrafeed® Sewing Machine, a #20 needle is advised for flawless performance.

To ensure the best sewing experience, the thread should be drawn from the top of the cone. This method adds an extra twist to the thread, which increases its integrity, prevents unraveling, and helps stabilize your machine's tension for a perfect stitch every time.
