This thread is super strong. You can cut yourself with it if you try to break it with your hands. I even had trouble cutting it with a cheap scissors. It's great for reattaching buttons, especially on high-stress areas like pants. The fabric or button will probably fail before the thread ever does.

On the down side, it's not very colorfast. I used the thread to do some mending, and after about a month's use, the color is completely gone, revealing the native yellowish color of Kevlar. The thread is still intact and holding quite well, it's just not black anymore.

Take a string and try to break it, you'll have trouble. Indeed very strong!

But I guess the fibers aren't twisted well or something, with actual outdoor use it deteriorates and eventually falls apart not quite like rotten manilla but almost.

So, I guess, don't use it for outdoor or dynamic applications.

I had figured I should post that you get 50 yards of this. It does not say in the description. Very fast shipping, good quality thread. I'm currently using this thread for the use of strengthening my foam r/c plane. For the time being it works quite well. Very strong and sturdy.

I am not sure if you have ever used Kevlar thread before, but the thread is wonderful. It can easily cut your hand while working with it, but the strength is exceptional. I am impressed with at the treads ability to retain the died color. Often when the tread is in the sun and water this much it returns to the natural color of yellow. While this thread does lighten up the yellow tones are still muted.

Delivered as promised, good value, good quality. I use kevlar thread for F3P profile models under 5 oz.

Seller was great, got my product fast. I just wish I thought to ask the weight, because I needed something a bit stronger even though Kevlar is supposed to be the strongest stuff on the market. Very pleased with seller, would definitely buy from him again.
