VERSATILE: Originally used by fisherman as a high-quality fishing line, this thread took off in the jewelry making world. It can be threaded on a needle and used for stringing or bead weaving. The thread does not stretch, or tangle and the strength of the cord is essential when working with heavier beads and findings. EASY FINISH: Because this is a super strong material, we recommend using sharp, precise scissors for cutting the string. However, the thread can also be burned instead of snipping. A thread burner is easier to use and more precise. This method seals the ends, which prevents frayed edges or split ends. DETAILS: Made in the USA, our Fireline is 4lb. test and comes in a crystal color. The cord measures .005” (.12mm) in diameter. The 125 yards are wound on a spool that is secured with a clear plastic clip. Keep your thread secure and organized. FIRELINE: This is a microfused, braided bead thread consisting of Dyneema, a gel-spun polyethylene which is known as the strongest fiber, per diameter, ever created. It has an unbelievably high tensile strength and has been recommended in numerous how-to articles on beadworking.
