## Overview

Fireline XCR-1278 Crystal Braided Beading Thread is a 50-yard spool of ultra-fine, 0.015mm diameter, gel-spun polyethylene thread offering exceptional 6LB tensile strength. Pre-waxed and flexible, it resists cutting by most beads and easily passes through a #12 beading needle, making it ideal for professional and hobbyist beadworkers seeking durability and precision in their jewelry crafting.

## Description

Braided bead thread has been recommended in many recent how-to articles on bead working. This is the fiber to use for all stringing which requires extra strength or multiple passes, but involves beads with small holes. This super strong, flexible, pre-waxed Braided bead thread incorporates gel-spun polyethylene. One of the strongest fiber cords per diameter ever created. Bead workers and bead stringers will find that this new product feels and works better than the finest bead thread, yet is as strong as jewelry wire. Most beads will not cut this product. It does not stretch, it knots easily, and will pass through a #12 beading needle.
