DURAK Duratex Textured Polyester Thread

Quilting (Bobbin) Under Thread Durak Duratex is a 100% polyester continuous flament textured thread. The textured filaments give the thread a soft feel and make it ideal for use in the loopers of overlocking, serging and cover seaming to provide softness and comfort, especially in “next-to-skin” seams. It gives high extensibility and seam strength resulting in good seam security and low shrinkage characteristics, which ensures no seam distortion after washing.
