Post dyed cotton garments normally require a 100% cotton sewing thread, but cotton threads have distinct drawbacks compared to corespun threads. These disadvantages include strength, elongation, shrinkage, sewing performance and abrasion resistance.
Coats Dual Duty Supercotton sewing thread is ideal for all 100% cotton post dyed garments. It is a highly engineered hybrid sewing thread designed to give you all the benefits of corespun threads combined with the suitability of use in making post dyed garments. The polyester filament core provides excellent strength and durability, while the higher percentage of long staple cotton wrap ensures optimal dye uptake and “hides” the polyester filament to avoid speckling effect in the sewn seam.
It is an ideal choice for post dyed garments where the garment’s final colour is relatively known before the dyeing process. It has a unique corespun construction that gives an enhanced sewing performance and abrasion resistance, even compared to “premium” quality 100% cotton threads.
Why Choose Coats Dual Duty™ Supercotton?
- The high tenacity polyester core provides higher tenacity and elongation as well as lower shrinkage compared to 100% cotton threads leading to superior seam quality
- Special cotton wrap provides excellent dye uptake
- Unique corespun construction delivers enhanced sewing performance and abrasion resistance even compared to “premium” quality 100% cotton threads
- Specially formulated lubrication for low friction sewing
