Nozue Sonoko Beading Thread 78dtex (0.29mm), 8-pound test, 100 meters

Designed for beadworkers by Master Beader Sonoko Nozue, this 100% nylon thread is strong enough that doubling isn’t necessary and it is difficult to pierce because it does not shred. Tangling is also minimized because it is non-clinging. 78dtex is equivalent to size zero (0), it will fit on a #13 beading needle and 330dtex is equivalent to size B, it will fit on a #12 beading needle and they both work like a cross between Nymo and Silamide. Sold by the 100 meter spool.

Recommended by Miyuki, maker of Delica® seed beads. Smooth-surfaced fray-resistant Nozue Sonoko nylon thread has a high friction resistance, making it last longer under movement and tension than other threads of its weight. When this non-twisted thread is cut, the end fibers remain together making for easier threading without the need to wax. Manufactured specifically for the beading industry. May be cut and burned using a thread burner.
