Madeira Heavy Metal No. 30 is an embroidery thread for the toughest tasks. This strong thread fills in faster, looks richer and is perfect for sewing jeans, canvas, shoes, leather and other fabrics where strength is important. Heavy Metal thread can be washed at the highest temperatures and is resistant to chlorine and bleaching without losing its luster.

With a revolutionary process that bonds a shimmery foil wrap to a thread core, Madeira has created metallic thread that is the sturdiest you can buy. This precision German engineering makes Madeira metallics durable enough for home decor, from holiday table runners to accented throw pillows, yet soft enough to add sparkle to your most elegant evening wear.

A typical embroidery design contains 6,000 stitches. This means each 220 yard/200 m Smart Spool with its 40,000 stitches per spool will produce 40 designs on average. That's plenty of thread for most home embroiderers. In fact, with the Smart Spool size, you can afford to buy thread more often and experiment with new colors and textures.
