ARC embroidery threads deliver
everything you want in poly embroidery thread. They are tough enough
to stand up to high-speed sewing, but the stitches go down smooth
for great looking embroidery every time.
We have sold thousands of
cones of arc thread to hundreds of very satisfied home machine
embroidery sewists and have not had the first complaint.
Our customers have saved hundreds of dollars by using arc thread instead of the higher priced
brands.
Good quality
thread at less than 1/2 the price of higher priced brands, you save
the difference.
The thread is strong -
ARC embroidery thread has a high tensile
strength which means fewer thread breaks and smoother high speed
sewing.
Ideal Elongation -
ARC poly thread has just the right amount
of elongation (thread stretch). This cuts down on costly thread
breaks, while limiting looping and puckering in finished designs.
Colorfast poly thread
-
ARC polyester threads have very high color
fastness ratings, so they will hold up well to washing and wearing.
High sheen -
ARC thread's radiance and shimmer will
make your designs look fantastic!
Colors, and more colors
-
ARC polyester embroidery threads come
in 288 colors!
Testing Tensile Strength
-
Here's a test to evaluate the strength
of different threads:
Have a partner hold a length of thread. With a second piece
of the same thread type, "saw" back and forth along the first piece
of thread. How much abuse can the thread take before it breaks?
You will find that ARC thread is durable, reducing thread breaks
and saving you money.
Testing Elongation -
ARC thread has just the right amount of
elongation (thread stretch). This cuts down on costly thread
breaks, while limiting looping and puckering in finished designs.
Elongation is the amount of stretch a
thread has. It's usually indicated as a percentage representing
the amount the thread can be stretched before breaking. Too
much elasticity makes a thread "pucker" and distort, too little
creates thread breaks. To test elongation, grasp a length
of thread in each hand and stretch until it breaks. All ARC
threads fall within the optimum elongation levels for highest quality
thread performance.
The best way to evaluate sheen, the color
saturation and luster of a thread, is to examine a finished product.
Thread on the cone looks different. Does the design
shimmer? Is the color bright and even? Compare sew-outs
with different threads for the best evaluation.
ARC threads come in 288 colors!
