Silver Conductive Thread 50 Yards / 45 M

Conductive thread can be used like conventional sewing yarn, however it electrically conducts allowing electronics to be integrated into textiles. This makes it ideal for use in a range of e-textile applications. The thread is plated with silver to make it conductive. The conductive thread has a generally low resistance but it does vary. Once sewn the resistance is typically in the middle of this range. Over time the silver plating will degrade particularly if washed and we have measured in excess of 280 ohms on some of our older examples.
