What does BONDED NYLON mean?
A bonded nylon is a twisted multifilament thread that has a protective resin coating that has good abrasion resistance with high-speed machines. This coating makes the thread stronger and more resistant to fraying and thread breakage. A high-speed machine must work with a bonded nylon due to the heat friction caused by the speed of the machine. 

What are the recommended uses for TEX 70 thread?
TEX 70 is a medium-weight bonded nylon thread which is typically used for handbags, purses, medium upholstery fabrics, heavier curtains, medium to heavier weight leather goods, outdoor gear and more. Materials such as heavier vinyl, denim, canvas, faux leather, heavier leathers, and webbing with multi layers.

What does it feel like?
Compared to non-bonded threads, TEX 70 thread is slightly stiffer and boasts a sleek smooth uniform finish showcasing defined stitches. It is recommended to have a dedicated bobbin case for your industrial threads due to the drastic tension change.
