Exhibiting an impressive 15 times greater strength than steel of equivalent diameter.
Feature Highlights:
Can be used for #8-22 flies ( because it is extremely thin )
Easy to split
Strong and ideal for super small flies
Perfect for flies with thin bodies
Easy to wax and dye with a marker
The thread end is fixed to the orange end of the bobbin

100m of spools
50DEN
14/0
Breaking strength: 1480 grams for black color, 1085 grams for white color
elongation 3.73%
Multi-filament polyethylene
Slightly twisted
Super easy to unravel
This exceptional strength doesn't compromise the thread's diameter, making it perfect for crafting flat and smooth bodies on smaller fly models. Sumo thread, composed of slightly twisted continuous fibers, facilitates the split-thread technique with remarkable ease. Its silky and shiny texture provides versatility, allowing for color customization with permanent markers. Sumo thread is suitable for dry flies, nymphs, wet flies, and streamers.
A significant advantage lies in its application to your fly without adding bulk to the bodies, enabling you to tie smaller flies than before. When crafting dubbing bodies, we recommend using tying wax for enhanced fur adhesion, or alternatively, employing the split thread technique for excellent results.
