Advanced Trilobal Thread

Fiber Type: Polyester - Trilobal

Fiber Size: Tex 27 (No. 40)

Glide has an elongation (stretch) average of 17-20%. Leading competitive products have elongation averages of 20-30%
Lower elongation (stretch) levels result in the elimination, or significant reduction in looping and puckering problems
A tighter range in elongation from spool to spool and color to color allows the operator to embroider different colors without making tension adjustments
Lower elongation also allows the operator to back off on tension right from the first stitch
