Why Choose S-Lon Fire?
S-Lon Fire is crafted from gel-spun polyethylene (GSP) — the strongest fibre per diameter ever created. Braided and thermally fused for a smooth, consistent finish, it glides effortlessly through seed beads, two-hole beads, and fine jewellery components without snagging, stretching, or fraying.
- ✔ Pre-waxed — ready to use straight from the spool, no extra waxing needed
- ✔ Zero stretch — maintains tension and shape beautifully over time
- ✔ Fray and abrasion resistant — ideal for intricate, multi-pass beadweaving
- ✔ High tensile strength — 6LB rated, a versatile mid-weight for a wide range of beadwork
- ✔ Clear / Crystal colour — virtually invisible thread, perfect for transparent and light-coloured beads
- ✔ 50-yard spool — excellent value for frequent beaders and larger projects
- ✔ Compatible with beading needles — works with size 10, 12, and 13 needles
