What kind of thread is this?
 

I saw this thread and can't find out any info on it. Does anyone here know what it is?
Thanks!

There hopefully will be several good replies for you, but to me, looking at a closeup of the thread label, it appears to be a synthetic thread (they call it "filament") with 12000 yards on the spool. Makes me wonder if it was sold to the mattress/bedspread industry for commercial quilting of same.

The Tex 60 is the key to what it is. Coats has a chart for the different Tex sizes. I would think it is thin filament poly.
Filament poly is very strong thread. It is what most prewound bobbins use. I would buy all of it if the price was reasonable.

Update:
After looking at the Tex chart is shows it is a 20wt 2 ply extra strong. Not suitable for piecing or bobbins.

Thanks onebyone. Sent you a private message. :)

Yes, it is thread used to sew mattress. www.komar.com for more information.

I agree with Jan. Looks like type of thread for making mattresses. I am very careful to use quality thread on my Bernina.

This is quality thread for what it is made for. I would use it to make totes, duffle bags, pillows, etc. If my machine couldn't handle different threads I'd be upset. I have a Bernina and all I have to do is change the tension and needle to use any thread.
