Classic Rayon Thread

Madeira's rayon thread, Classic Rayon, is known worldwide for its high tensile strength and excellent glossy luster.  Made from 100% viscose rayon, it is perfectly suited for embroidery on high speed commercial embroidery machines.  Classic Rayon maintains its soft "hand" even when the stitch count is high.


Classic Rayon No. 40, available in 1,100 yard spools and 5,500 yard cones, is a standard thickness for embroidery and comes in 413 colors.  For best results please use a #65/9 or #75/11 needle.


Classic Rayon No. 60, available in 1,640 yard spools, it can be used anywhere fine detail and small lettering is required, and for decorative sewing on delicate fabrics.  This fine embroidery thread comes in 65 colors.  For best results please use a #65/9 needle.


Classic Rayon No. 30, available in 714 yard spools and 3,300 yard cones, it is a thicker rayon thread which fills in quickly and reduces the stitch count and production time of larger designs.  It is also ideal for use on heavy fabrics such as terry toweling, carpeting and upholstery.  Classic Rayon 30 weight is available in 180 colors.  For best results please use a #75/11 needle.


Classic Rayon No. 12, available in 2,187 yard cones, is a soft, satiny, 2-ply Rayon serging thread.  The unique twist of Classic Rayon No. 12 makes it an excellent choice for edging garments and badges.  A needlepoint effect can be achieved when it is run on a standard embroidery machine.  This thick thread is available in 65 colors.  For best results please use a #100/16 needle.
