Product Details

MH 40S/2 UV-resistant polyester sewing thread is a 100% spun polyester thread built in a 40S/2 count (ticket 120) and wound 5,000 yards to a cone, engineered with anti-wick and anti-UV performance for outdoor and marine use.

Key Selling Points

• Built-in UV resistance: MH UV-resistant polyester thread reduces ultraviolet absorption, slowing fade and aging so outdoor seams keep their strength longer.

• Anti-wick performance: The anti-wick finish resists moisture travelling along the thread, making it well suited to awnings, sails and marine fabric products.

• High abrasion resistance: The spun polyester surface withstands heavy seam wear and high-speed machine passage without fraying.

• Consistent, skip-free stitching: Even thread tension and surface smoothness deliver uniform stitch formation and reliable feeding through machine guides.

• Certified, color-matched supply: Manufactured under OEKO-TEX certification with an 800-plus color card, MH offers dependable bulk supply for outdoor and technical sewing.

Since the sun's rays contain a lot of ultraviolet light harmful to colored objects. This harmful ultraviolet light passes through the chemical redox reaction, which causes the color molecules to finally decompose and fade, which will also cause the thread to age rapidly.

The anti-UV sewing thread can reduce the absorption of ultraviolet rays to a certain extent, prevent the degradation of the sewing thread, ensure the mechanical properties of the thread, and also improve the lightfastness of the thread.

Application: It can be widely used in tactical protective clothing, outdoor tents, umbrellas, beachwear, swimwear, hats, outdoor sun protection clothing and other products that are often exposed to the sun to enhance the service life of outdoor products.

At present, our anti-UV polyester sewing thread has passed the anti-UV AS/NZS 4399:1996 test standard, and the UPF value is above 40, which can achieve a very excellent protective effect.

Advantage:

• UV resistant

• High level of abrasion resistance

• Consistent stitch formation

• No skipped stitches

• Evenness, to prevent changes in tension during sewing

• Sufficient surface smoothness, to pass easily through the machine guides

• High level of colour fastness
