The Beadsmith Fireline by Berkley, Micro-Fused Braided Thread

Absolutely love this thread for many reasons. I bead with the Artis Ukrainia Glass beading kits. The beads can vary drastically in size in 1 single kit. The current kit I am working on has some large beads, moatly regular size 10 or 11/0 seed beads and some of the smallest beads I have personally worked with. The .006 6lb .15 works surprisingly well for all 3 sizes of beads. The smallest beads are so small. I've never seen smaller beads and was so pleased when I tried the thread and it through them too. I have been using this thread for these kits for probably over a decade now. It is Always a consistent thickness, always very strong, does Not shred or strip and doesn't snap. I'd cut my skin trying to break this line and I'd be the loser in that game of tug a war, not the thread, lol. The other thing I love is the flexibility of the line as well. When I am embroidering each and every single bead, 13,085 beads in this kit, I need thread/line that is very flexible and this works perfectly. The other favorable quality of this line is how it doesn't tangle. I have tried other line and had it get in a huge rats nest. Made me want to scream but not this Berkeley line. Even during Covid when the quality of a lot of products was not the best this line was consistently good. I honestly feel this is the best beading thread on the market right now. There are imitators but they fray and tangle or shred. When one is doing a large project, the last thing you want is the thread snapping or fraying and then all your work comes undone and you end up with hundreds of beads everywhere. I have never had that problem with this line. The canvas that my kits are made of is a very strong cotton canvas that is tightly woven. It can even be hard to pass the very sharp beed needle through in a few areas yet the line never frays and stays consistently strong.It also does not stretch which is a big plus.I have to use very sharp scissors to even cut through it. The only downside and it is the only one is the price. It is on the expensive side but that said you get what you pay for and for me it's worth it to pay more for line that isn't going to fail me or tangle and make me so irritated I don't want to finish the project. I certainly don't want to put hundreds of hours into a project and have my line fail. Nobody wants that to happen so I would tell anyone that if you want a full proof line that will hold up to literally everything and is flexible and doesn't tangle up then this is the line you want and it is so worth it in the long run!

Fireline is my go to thread for beading. It works very nicely with projects using 11/0 Miyuki delica beads. It is strong, easy to thread, and can be used with a variety of other bead sizes and shapes. Generally I purchase it in either 6 or 8 lb. weight but there are other weights available depending on the size and types of beads being used. The product I received was just as advertised, 300 yards of 6 lb. Test in crystal color. Usually I cannot find 300 yard spools so I was happy to have found this on Amazon and plan to look for it here again. My only complaint with the product is that it doesn’t have a wider variety of colors available!

The Fireline beading thread is Great for stitching and crosstitching jewelry

This is the best beading thread. It is strong and does not fray. I highly recommend it.

Really strong! I had to pinch it to fit through a needle but then it worked great. It’s thin enough to go through beads multiple times. I really like it! Will likely purchase again

Great item.

Works great for my applications

Great for jewelry making. I think you pay more for the name. But always as described and good quality.

Kraftig tråd som passar till hobby.

Snabb o bra leverans o nöjd med produkten

Ottimo filo per perline, non si rompe, flessibile, si fatica persino a tagliarlo con le forbici!!!🔝🔝🔝

I use Fireline for most of my handcrafted necklaces because it's strong, great quality and easy to flatten the end so you can easily thread beafing needles which is essential

Good quality thread for serious bead work.
