Adafruit Stainless Medium Conductive Thread - 3 ply - 18 meter/60 ft

Our ultimate conductive thread is crafted entirely from 316L stainless steel, ensuring durability and a smooth texture. This 3-ply thread is thicker than standard polyester or cotton but remains suitable for medium-eye hand sewing needles and capable sewing machines.

Ideal for wearable and e-textile projects, it boasts low resistivity of 10 ohms per foot, efficiently powering LEDs and electronic components up to ~100mA. Unlike silver, it resists oxidation, maintaining functionality over time and being washable without degradation.

While its slight stiffness is reminiscent of waxed thread, limiting its use in touchscreen-sensitive applications, it excels in structural and electronic reliability. Wrapped neatly in a convenient bobbin, it offers 18 meters/60 feet of innovative design possibilities.
