SULKY® RAYON 40

SULKY-COTTON-Artikelgruppenbeschr-Petites

  • If the reverse side of the project is visible, either SULKY® RAYON 40 or the thinner SULKY® POLY LITE 60 is ideal as bobbin thread.
    For all other projects, we recommend SULKY® BOBBIN
  • Most people find that Sulky 40 Wt. Rayon thread is easier to use for machine embroidery than any polyester thread because it has less stretch and stretch memory. Because of polyester's added, unnecessary strength, it causes acceleration of wear on the machine's moving parts and in the bobbin and needle thread path.
  • The decorative stitches on virtually all sewing machines are programmed to use 40 Wt. Rayon Thread. A lighter or heavier thread may require an adjustment to the stitch length or width, depending on its density.

The needle makes the difference!
We recommend needle size NM 75-80 (Universal, Top Stitch or Embroidery)
