Technical nylon threads

Kapron thread (polyamide) is very strong and is intended for use in many areas of life.Kapron thread is also used in working with documents, for sealing, for sewing shoes, in construction and many other industries.

Kapron thread is easy to tie knots, it is soft, strong, resistant to abrasion, almost does not collapse from the effects of ultraviolet rays, is not afraid of cold and dampness. Kapron is characterized by high wear resistance and mechanical strength, high impact strength, chemical resistance, resistance to most solvents.

Kapron products dissolve only in concentrated sulfuric and formic acids, fluorinated alcohols. It is physiologically harmless and slowly dissolves in the human body.

Our nylon thread is available in various packaging, colors, and sizes.
