Description

Building on Danville's renowned classic thread and combining our over 60 years of experience in textile fibers and dyeing, we have reintroduced Flat Waxed Nylon, preserving its distinctive characteristics while expanding its color range. Flat Waxed Nylon is a high-tenacity tying thread composed of nearly parallel filaments, making it lie very flat on the hook, provided that the twists formed during wrapping are released. Thanks to this feature, it allows for the creation of very uniform bodies. It is perfect for tying large flies, both for saltwater and freshwater, and is also excellent for tying large flies using natural materials, allowing you to tightly tie hair and hackles without cutting them. - 100-meter spool - 210 Denier thread size

Field Notes

Use this flat waxed nylon as fly-tying thread for building durable bodies on larger freshwater or saltwater flies. It is especially useful when you want a flat, smooth thread lay and strong tension for securing hair, hackles, and other natural materials without cutting them.

Pros

  • High-tenacity thread for strong fly construction
  • Lies very flat for smooth, uniform bodies
  • Good for tying large flies and natural materials

Cons

  • Bulkier than fine tying threads for small patterns
  • Best suited to larger flies rather than delicate midge work
