Add dependable, flame-resistant seams with A&E 100% Spun Nomex® Thread in Tex 40. Olive Green #70059 delivers a deep, muted green that blends with olive drab uniforms, flight suits, and military-style gear, keeping stitch lines consistent and low-visibility on olive and green-toned fabrics and flame-resistant garments. Nomex is an inherently flame-resistant fiber, so unlike polyester and nylon, it won’t melt or drip when exposed to high heat and flame, helping seams hold together on gear where heat and fire exposure are a concern. Spun construction gives the thread a soft, cotton-like feel, smooth sewing performance, and dependable strength.
Rely on clear specs for efficient setup. This spun Nomex thread is Tex 40, offering a light- to medium-weight profile for clean, durable stitching on apparel-weight fabrics and lighter layers. Packaging includes a 16 oz spool, providing generous yardage for larger runs, repairs, and project batches without frequent spool changes. Compatibility fits standard home sewing machines as well as commercial machines set up for light- to medium-weight thread. Test on scrap material to dial in needle size, tension, and stitch length.
Put this Nomex thread to work on flame-resistant workwear, flight suits, firefighter and industrial garments, tactical uniforms, and repairs where olive green stitching matches military and field-ready fabrics. Because flame-resistant garments are only as protective as their weakest component, this thread helps keep seams consistent with FR fabrics; verify that any finished item meets the requirements of the specific fire safety standard it must pass. Avoid using thread for load-bearing or safety-critical applications, such as climbing, lifting, towing, or restraint. For best results, use steady speed, correct tension, and a clean thread path to reduce friction and skipped stitches.
