FireLine Bead Thread 6lB 125YD* .15MM DIA Crystal
FireLine is a pre-waxed, braided thread made from gel-spun polyethylene — one of the strongest fibres ever created for its diameter. It doesn’t stretch, knots easily, and passes smoothly through a #12 beading needle. Stronger than traditional thread and flexible like jewellery wire, FireLine is a favourite among serious bead artists. Made in the USA.
Perfect for bead weaving, looming, and stitching projects that require durability and multiple passes through tiny bead holes — especially when using seed beads. The crystal-clear thread blends invisibly into your colour palette, making it ideal for both subtle and bold designs.
Thread weight: 6LB is the most versatile & popular FireLine size — fine enough for 11/0 and 15/0 seed beads, yet strong enough to hold structure in larger, more complex projects.
Commonly used for techniques like peyote stitch, brick stitch, right-angle weave, and loom work. Works beautifully with TOHO, Miyuki, and Delica beads, and fits beading needles #10–#12.
Not recommended for use with crimp beads or crimp tubes.
Save $8 when you buy the 125-yard spool instead of purchasing the same amount in 50-yard packs.
FireLine is trusted by jewellery makers worldwide and widely regarded as the go-to beading thread for strength, precision, and professional results.
