Review: excellent thread... - will say thick thread and looks like a lot there.... had to purchase there is no longer a sewing store here or nearby... Review: Durable, Smooth, and Truly All-Purpose - I’ve been using this COATS Dual Duty thread for years, and it’s consistently reliable for everything from basic repairs to full sewing projects. It’s strong, easy to work with, and a staple in my sewing kit. 🧵 Strong and Versatile for Any Project This 400-yard spool offers plenty of thread for both hand and machine sewing (page 1). Whether I’m hemming jeans, fixing upholstery, or sewing a costume, this thread holds up without snapping or fraying. The polyester-wrapped core adds strength and minimizes tangles during use. 🎨 Classic Black That Matches Everything The black color is deep and true—perfect for pairing with dark fabrics without any mismatch. It blends well and doesn’t fade after washing. Also available in white (as shown under color options on page 1), so I always keep both on hand. 🪡 Machine-Friendly with No Snags I’ve run this thread through multiple sewing machines, and it feeds smoothly without lint build-up or breakage. As confirmed in reviews (page 3), even high-speed stitching works great—no skipped stitches or unraveling at the seams. 💰 Affordable and Long-Lasting At just around $5 a spool and 400 yards per roll, it’s a solid value. I’ve found it lasts longer than some higher-end brands I’ve tried, and it doesn’t compromise on quality. ✅ Pros: Durable, tangle-resistant thread Smooth in both hand and machine stitching Great colorfastness, doesn’t bleed Excellent value for daily use ❌ Cons: None—just wish there were more color options in-store Overall: This is my go-to thread for a reason. Whether you're a beginner or seasoned sewer, it offers reliability, smooth handling, and lasting results. Always keep a spool (or three) of this on hand! ## Features - 100% Polyester - It Features Polyester Covered Polyester Core For Strength - This Thread Can Be Used For A Variety Of Sewing Projects - This Package Contains One 400 Yard/365M Spool - Country Of Origin : United States ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00172V5VI | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,093 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #20 in Sewing Thread | | Brand | Coats & Clark | | Brand Name | Coats & Clark | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 3,507 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00073650138010 | | Item Length | 400 Yards | | Item Type Name | Thread | | Item Weight | 0.02 Pounds | | Manufacturer | COATS & CLARK INC. | | Material | Polyester | | Material Composition | Polyester 100 | | Material Type | Polyester | | UPC | 073650138010 | | Unit Count | 1200.0 Feet | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Coats & Clark - **Color:** Black - **Compatible Knitting Needle Metric Size:** 4 Millimeters - **Compatible Knitting Needle US Size:** 8 - **Global Trade Identification Number:** 00073650138010 - **Item Length:** 400 Yards - **Item Weight:** 9.07 g - **Material:** Polyester - **Material Composition:** Polyester 100 - **UPC:** 073650138010 ## Images ![230A-2 Dual Duty All-Purpose Thread, 400 Yards/1 Spool of Yarn, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71gY6zV7y7L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ excellent thread... *by M***E on December 19, 2025* will say thick thread and looks like a lot there.... had to purchase there is no longer a sewing store here or nearby... ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Durable, Smooth, and Truly All-Purpose *by A***R on July 10, 2025* I’ve been using this COATS Dual Duty thread for years, and it’s consistently reliable for everything from basic repairs to full sewing projects.
