Continuous filament polyester core construction
- Excellent uniformity for consistent performance
- Recommended for garments that will be subjected to enzyme, stone, and chemical washes

Cotton wrapper
- Superior resistance to needle heat and heat applied during laundering
- Recommended for signature contrast stiching that will fade during laundering
- Contributes to excellent loop formation that will minimize thread breadages and skipped stitches
Superior strength per size - higher tenacity than 100% spun thread constructions
- Allows the user of finer sizes to minimize seam puckering due to structural jamming or excessive tension
- More yards per bobbin - few bobbin changes
Excellent sewability due to enhanced ply security and a higher initial modulus - Anatrak® proven results
- Minimizes interruptions on thouse tough sewing operations including automatic pocket setters and other multi-directional sewing machines
Unique low friction thread lubricant giving improved stitch and seam appearance
