DetailsThread is a small piece of a sewing project but its importance is undeniable. Selecting the right thread for your application ensures that you will get the best performing seams. One key factor to keep in mind is the end location of the projects. Outdoor projects require threads that can stand up to the weather, while interior pieces have different performance needs. In this post, we’re going to look at common thread types, their uses and the properties that make them suitable for those uses.Outdoor applications require specific traits such as UV resistance, high strength and resistance to abrasion, mildew and often saltwater to ensure it will last in a variety of weather conditions. For indoor applications, the UV resistance becomes less important and abrasion resistance and stretch become more important. Upholstery applications, for example, require a thread that has good elasticity so it will give and recover when you sit on it.These threads will outlast your fabric! We carry two brands of lifetime threads: Tenara® and Sailrite® (formerly Profilen®). Tenara is made from a unique fluoropolymer and Sailrite is made from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). Both of these brands carry a lifetime guarantee. These threads are unaffected by exposure to UV rays, harsh cleaning agents, pollution, saltwater, rain, snow, cold and rot. Lifetime threads carry a lot of performance benefits, but they are a little pricey. They are much more expensive upfront but will require less re-stitching over the lifetime of your project. They can be a little trickier to sew with than more traditional thread materials, so keep that in mind when deciding between a lifetime thread and a UV treated polyester. Lifetime threads are often used for outdoor, marine and awning applications.
