 Trilobal Polyester Threads

5. Polyester Core Spun Threads
 This type of threads is produced by spinning polyester
fiber around a core of high tenacity continuous
filament polyester in spinning operation. Two or more
of these composite yarns are then twisted together to
give the necessary size and tensile strength.
 Uses: Mainly use in topstitching of shirts, blouses,
trousers, sportswear, jeans and work cloths.
