Simthread All-Purpose Sewing Thread 4 Cones (5000M/5500yd) White — 40S/2 100% Spun Polyester, Low-Lint

Simthread All Purpose Sewing Thread is a heavy-duty, 100% spun polyester thread sold as four large 5000M (5500 yd) cones designed for serger, overlock, quilting and general sewing applications.

Whether you sew at home or run a small production line, this bulk pack supplies a consistent, low-lint polyester thread that’s knot-resistant and suited to a wide variety of fabrics. Each cone holds 5000 meters (about 5,500 yards) of 40 weight, two-ply polyester thread, and the set of four cones is individually wrapped to keep dust out until you’re ready to use them. The thread’s non-stretch, strong core and minimal lint make it a practical choice for both machine and hand sewing.

How will this thread perform in my serger or overlock machine?

Simthread’s spun polyester is optimised for high-speed machines: it feeds smoothly, resists fraying, and keeps stitch formation tidy. The low-lint composition reduces the need for frequent cleaning and helps prevent tension problems caused by fuzz buildup.

• Compatible with most modern sergers and overlockers
• Consistent diameter for even tension and neat seams
• Minimal lint extends time between machine cleanings
• Individually wrapped cones prevent contamination during storage

Is this thread suitable for quilting, upholstery, and heavy fabrics?

The 40S/2 spun polyester construction balances strength and pliability, making it a good all-purpose choice for quilting, drapery, canvas, and upholstery seams. It won’t easily snap under strain, yet it remains flexible enough for layered or bulky projects.

• Durable core handles the stress of upholstery and heavy seams
• Works with multiple fabric types, from flannel to canvas
• Good for long seams and multi-layer quilting
• Non-stretch behavior preserves seam integrity over time

How much thread do I get and how is it packaged?

This value pack delivers four cones, each containing 5000 meters (approximately 5,500 yards), for a total of about 22,000 yards—enough to cover many projects without frequent resupply. Each cone is wrapped individually to stay dust-free and ready for immediate installation.

• 4 cones x 5000M (5500 yd) per cone = ~22,000 yards total
• Individual wrapping protects thread during storage and shipping
• Bulk supply reduces order frequency for hobbyists and small businesses
• 40 WT weight suitable for standard needles and machine settings

Will this thread work with my home sewing machine and hand sewing?

Yes—Simthread’s spun polyester is crafted for broad compatibility. It’s suitable for single-needle home machines, commercial equipment, and hand sewing when a durable, non-elastic thread is needed.

• Fits most domestic and commercial sewing machines
• Also useful for hand stitching, basting and repairs
• Reduced breakage and twisting during normal operation
• Use standard needles sized for 40 weight thread
