MH polyester waxed thread is a 210D/16 construction, meaning 16 plies braided together at 210 denier, made from 100% polyester and finished with a wax coating for leather sewing and hand stitching.

The 16-ply polyester construction gives the thread high tensile strength for heavy-duty stitching, making it suited to wallets, belts, bags, shoes and saddlery work in both hand and machine leather sewing.

Key Selling Points

• Friction-reducing wax coating: The wax finish on MH 210D/16 polyester thread lets it glide through leather instead of binding, making hand stitching smoother and less tiring.

• Fray-resistant cut ends: The wax coating holds the 16-ply construction together at cut ends, so threading a needle or starting a knot stays clean.

• High tensile strength for heavy-duty seams: The 16-ply, 210 denier build gives the thread the strength needed for durable leather goods seams.

• Locked, secure stitches: The wax helps each stitch seat and hold its position, keeping hand-sewn leather seams tight over time.

The polyester thread provides excellent strength, high resistance to wear, and low elongation, ensuring durability in various stitching applications.

The thread is coated with a fine layer of wax, allowing for smooth, tangle-free stitching, reducing friction and making it easier to pass through thick or tough materials.

The wax coating adds water resistance, making it ideal for outdoor and moisture-prone environments.

Polyester Waxed Thread is ideal for heavy-duty sewing in various industries, including leather crafting, outdoor gear, upholstery, marine work, footwear, and automotive interiors. Its durability, water resistance, and smooth stitching make it perfect for both hand and machine sewing in professional and DIY projects.
