Solid industrial grade yarn
The 40D version is quite strong. We use it in commercial protective wear. It withstands industrial washing better than expected, though the price point is slightly high.

Great for beginners in e-textiles
As someone new to conductive sewing, this yarn was forgiving and easy to work with. My circuit completed perfectly on the first try. Highly recommended!

Good shielding properties
Bought this for making anti-static bags. It works well for blocking interference. Only giving 4 stars because the spool tension was a bit tight initially.

Excellent conductivity for wearable projects
I used the 20D yarn for a smart glove prototype. The signal transmission is flawless, and it sews easily without breaking. Great quality for electronic textiles.

Perfect for EMI protection gear
Integrated this into a custom jacket lining. The material is flexible yet robust. It provides the radiation shielding I needed without adding bulk.

Reliable for lab testing
We utilize this silver-plated nylon for various conductivity tests. The consistency between batches is impressive, and the antibacterial claim holds up in our initial trials.
Q: Does the antibacterial effect last after multiple washes?
A: Yes, the silver ions are embedded within the plating process. Our tests show significant antibacterial efficacy remains even after 50 standard machine wash cycles, provided mild detergents are used.
Q: What is the difference between the 20D and 40D versions?
A: The 'D' stands for Denier. The 20D yarn is finer and more flexible, ideal for delicate sensors or lightweight fabrics. The 40D is thicker, offering higher durability and slightly better shielding for heavy-duty protective gear.
Q: Is this suitable for direct skin contact in clothing?
A: Absolutely. The silver-plated nylon is safe for direct skin contact and is commonly used in underwear and base layers for its antimicrobial and odor-control properties.
Q: Do you offer samples before bulk ordering?
A: Yes, we provide small sample spools of both 20D and 40D variants. Please visit our 'Samples' page or contact sales directly to request a kit for testing.
Q: Can this yarn be dyed to match specific fabric colors?
A: While the base filament is metallic silver, dyeing silver-plated fibers is generally not recommended as it can reduce conductivity. We suggest using it as an internal layer or blending it with colored non-conductive threads.
