Isacord 6031 Limelight Embroidery Thread

Isacord 6031 Limelight is a 40-weight (40wt) embroidery thread. This is the industry-standard weight for commercial machine embroidery, providing the ideal balance between fine detail coverage and strong, durable stitch performance across all major embroidery machine brands.

Isacord thread, including color 6031 Limelight, is 100% polyester — specifically a continuous filament polyester with a modified cross-section fiber. It delivers a shine comparable to rayon thread while offering nearly twice the tensile strength, making it far more durable for commercial production and treated garment applications.

Isacord 6031 Limelight is available in two spool sizes: 1000m (ideal for color variety and sampling) and 5000m (best for high-volume production runs). The 1000m spool weighs approximately 0.5 lbs and measures 4x4x3 inches, while the 5000m spool weighs 1 lb and measures 6x3x3 inches.

Yes. Isacord 6031 Limelight is wash-fast, boil-fast, and lightfast, and it resists chlorine bleach, stonewashing, and abrasion. This makes it ideal for embroidery on work wear, sportswear, denim, leather, catering uniforms, and other garments that undergo rigorous laundering or chemical treatment.
