Discover the superior performance of Bound™ Performance Thread with this comprehensive 14-cone color assortment. Featuring an array of our most popular colors in both Tex 90 (V-92) and Tex 70 (V-69) sizes, this kit equips your workshop for virtually any color-matching scenario.
This industrial-grade bonded polyester thread is your go-to solution for outdoor and marine projects that demand unwavering strength and longevity against the elements. When you need a reliable sewing thread that delivers a powerful, lasting stitch, choose the thread trusted by industry professionals.
Engineered with a specialized non-wicking finish, Bound thread actively repels moisture, preventing water migration through seam holes and protecting your work from mildew. The advanced bonded construction not only boosts core strength but also delivers a remarkably smooth sewing experience, reducing snags and fraying. Furthermore, its exceptional UV resistance guards against strength degradation from prolonged sun exposure, making it the ultimate marine sewing thread for boat tops, sail covers, outdoor upholstery, and heavy-duty canvas work.

Pro Tip: To add a slight twist that reinforces the thread's strength, prevents unraveling, and resolves potential tension issues, always ensure the thread pulls directly from the top of the cone.
