Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What materials can this 0.8mm waxed polyester thread be used to stitch?
A: This waxed polyester thread is ideal for stitching leather, thick canvas, denim, felt, and other heavy-duty materials. It's commonly used for leather bags, wallets, belts, shoes, bookbinding, bracelets, and a wide range of DIY hand-stitching projects.
Q: Does the wax coating wear off quickly?
A: No — the wax is evenly embedded into the polyester (dacron) cord, providing lasting lubrication throughout the thread's length. This helps it pass smoothly through needles and material without fraying, even on longer stitching runs.
Q: Is one roll of 90 meters enough for a full leather project?
A: It depends on your project size, but 90 meters is generally sufficient for multiple small-to-medium leather items such as wallets, key fobs, or journal covers. For larger pieces like bags or belts, you may want to keep a few rolls on hand.
Q: What needle size should I use with 0.8mm waxed thread?
A: A blunt-tipped leather hand-stitching needle with an eye large enough to accommodate 0.8mm cord works best. Most standard leather sewing needles (sizes 18–22) pair perfectly with this thread diameter.
