ZIRCON SEMI-WAXED BRAID

Zircon semi-waxed braid is ideal for creating an attractive coarse decorative seam, especially appropriate for shoes, hand crafted upholstery, leather goods and steering wheel covers. It has high performance whether used for hand sewing or during demanding high-speed machine applications, and has a calculated wax distribution for easy use and best results.

Zircon braided thread is pliant, abrasion resistant and colour-fast for many years. Stock colours in semi-waxed variant are white, several shades of brown and black. Other colour enquiries and orders are welcome but a minimum quantity may apply.

ZIRCON WAXED BRAID

Zircon waxed braid has just the right amount of special waxed coating, enabling easy hand-plaiting and provides an ideal surface for slipknots such as in neckwear. It can be melted, weaved or plaited to form thicker braids. Use Zircon waxed polyester braid with confidence to create quality hand-made or machine-made products.

In New Zealand we have many manufacturers who use polyester braided thread for greenstone jade [Pounamu] and bone carving souvenir necklaces because of it's strength, feel against the skin, vibrant range of colours available and the ability to plait colours together. Waxed braid is available in four thicknesses, as above in the stitch comparison illustration.
