The new C-Lon® Fine Weight Bead Cord Tex 135 is the latest addition to the C-Lon family as of Feb 2010. As its siblings, the C-Lon Bead Cord (standard weight), the C-Lon Micro Cord (extra fine weight) and the C-Lon Tex 400 Bead Cord (heavy weight), it is a bonded 3 ply twisted multi-filament thread Tex 135 with diameter of 0.4mm and a 24 lb breaking strength. It can be used for micro macrame, stringing beads and other techniques such as bead crochet, finger weaving, kumihimo, tatting as well as many other uses where a strong bonded nylon is required. It is an especially good size for Swaroski crystals beads and for crochet ropes with seed beads size 8/0 and smaller.

12 colors + 4 more colors planned for release this summer
136 yd - 124 m
Thread Ø 0.4mm - Tex 135 - Z Twist - 24 lb breaking strength - Made in the USA

Personal Note :: If you have been interested in this size, C-Lon provide a new option. 16 colors are planned for now. I often use this size of thread in combination with the standard size. I welcome the addition of C-Lon in this size as colors have been limited to the Tuff Bead Cord Size 3 and vintage cords not longer produced.
