The high tenacity filament sewing thread can be 100% polyester or nylon filament strand twisting, combining, sizing, dyeing, oil winding twisting, and other additional processes.
The polyester high tenacity filament sewing thread is known as Tetoron thread. The tetoron thread is a lubricated polyester thread made from high-strength tenacity continuous filament polyester and low shrinkage.
It has high strength, strong coloring, good wear resistance, good performance including corrosion and mildew resistance.
Again, here are some of the features of this thread are high seam strength and appearance because it has been produced using special filament yarn, low elongation, and low shrink ability or no elasticity, high chemical resistance.
Also, the body line is smooth and hairless with good colorfastness and strong pulling forces.

Use of polyester high tenacity sewing thread:
High tenacity polyester filament sewing thread is used in daily household items such as furniture beds, clothing, leather handbags, shoes and hats, weaving, knitting, sewing thread, hand knitting, clothing, and toys.
Advantages of using high tenacity filament sewing thread:
The following are the benefits to experience when using high tenacity filament sewing thread in the production process:
• It responds to tension changes and is very stable, therefore, reducing the thread breakage and thread replacement during sewing.
• It improves productivity and is very appropriate with fine seams for shoe sewing, professional clothing, and leather furniture or goods.
• It has a soft finish with superior low friction lubrication which reduces the effects of needle heat and abrasion.
• It provides good seam durability, excellent chemical and mildew resistance.
• It has good abrasion resistance and stable sewing performance on automatic sewing machines that is, consistent sewing or stitching formation and neat seam appearance.
Whereas, nylon high tenacity sewing thread is made of nylon 6 and nylon 6.6. It is used to maintain a stable strength in dry and wet environments. Also, the nylon high tenacity filament sewing thread comes with higher strength, corrosion, and is wear-resistant than polyester.
Uses of nylon high tenacity sewing thread:
It can be used for filtration, mattresses, airbags, seat belts, multi-needle quilting, automotive interiors, leather footwear, suitcases, upholstery furniture, outdoor goods, and sports equipment.
Super High Tenacity Sewing Thread (SHT) is a Polyester Staple Fibre product that is used to make sewing threads.
Grey and colored polyester sewing thread yarn can be manufactured using a super high tenacity fiber.
In addition to the other high tenacity yarns mentioned above. There is continuous filament high tenacity yarn which is worth mentioning here. It is a high technology yarn for heavy-duty sewing which improves dimensional stability and extraordinary gliding performance.
It is generally used in some industries such as suitcase makers, footwear industry, furnishing and quilt industry, and leather goods.
In other words, to successfully achieve high tenacity filament sewing thread, it will include 100% polyester high tenacity thread, 100% nylon bonded thread, and a nylon high tenacity thread.
