Now offering CLEAR (translucent - whitish) Tenara thread for your designing pleasure!

Heavy Gore-Tex Tenara® HTR 138 thread, which is unaffected by exposure to UV rays, chemicals, salt water, dirt and sweat. This extreme durability and ease of use make Tenara desirable for jewelry applications of stringing, knotting, braiding, crocheting and leather wrapping.

I'm currently experimenting with Tenara, finding that it knots easily, drapes nicely, doesn't fray and has a smooth, slick finish which is easy on the fingers. A whole spool costs about $120-$130, so I'm offering it to you at affordable lengths. Please let me know how you use this in your jewelry designs! I'll be adding photos of my creations soon.

Size (diameter): 0.45 mm, similar to Beaders Secret size #20 (heavy)

Break strength: 19 lbs (single thread)

Construction: PTFE 3-ply bonded fibers, does not fray, use with jewelers glue

Tenara thread is also used widely in the marine industry for sewing sails and for outdoor upholstery as it is unaffected by UV rays. NASA spacesuits are made of this thread!
