COATS Terko Satin Corespun Poly-Cotton Thread

The Terko Satin thread is a cotton wrapped polyester corespun thread with a glacé finish. It combines the excellent sewing performance of cotton with the superior strength and elongation characteristics of the continuous filament polyester core. The cotton wrap protects the polyester core from needle heat even in the most demanding of applications. The glacé finish is imparted through a special polishing process using a proprietary formulation. This finish binds together the fibrous surface of the thread and creates a lustrous finish to the thread with enhanced abrasion resistance. A premium choice for indoor upholstery and other industrial applications.

Features & Benefits:

• Corespun thread that couples the high tenacity of a polyester filament core with a cotton wrap, delivering the sewing performance of a continuous filament thread, yet providing the appearance of cotton
• Polished through a specially-engineered process using a customised formulation to ensure that the fibres are held together during tough sewing operations, resulting in strong seams
• Cotton wrap protects the polyester core from needle heat generated during high speed sewing, thus preserving the thread’s strength
• In wet, outdoor conditions, cotton wrap absorbs the water and swells to fill the needle holes completely to prevent leakage
• Controlled stretch characteristics yield excellent sewability with tight, firm stitches on multiple leather surfaces

Usage Areas:

• General sewing thread for furniture and bedding
• Automotive & Marine Interiors
• Quilting
• Embroidery thread for inlaid fantasy clothing
• Clothing & Fashion
• Shoes & Handbags
• Leather & Saddlery
• Overlocking
