3M™ Nextel™ GT-15 Sewing Thread Supplier & Exporter in India
Premium 3M™ Nextel™ GT-15 Sewing Thread
Marshall Packings & Insulations Industries is a trusted supplier and exporter of 3M™ Nextel™ GT-15 Sewing Thread, a high-performance sewing thread designed for demanding industrial applications requiring excellent heat resistance, abrasion resistance, and reliable sewing performance.
Unlike Nextel™ ceramic sewing threads, 3M™ GT-15 Sewing Thread is manufactured from high-temperature continuous glass fiber coated with PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene). This construction provides smooth sewing characteristics, low friction, excellent chemical resistance, and outstanding durability during stitching operations. GT-15 is particularly suitable for sewing thermal insulation products, industrial fabrics, expansion joints, removable insulation blankets, and other high-temperature textile assemblies where precise, durable seams are required. According to 3M, GT-15 is a non-standard item available by special order.
3M™ Nextel™ GT-15 Sewing Thread is a high-performance high-temperature sewing thread designed for stitching thermal insulation products, industrial fabrics, and specialized textile assemblies. Its continuous glass fiber construction with PTFE coating provides smooth sewing performance, low friction, abrasion resistance, and reliable seam strength.
The PTFE-coated construction helps improve handling characteristics and sewing efficiency while providing good chemical and moisture resistance. GT-15 is suitable for removable insulation blankets, thermal jackets, furnace insulation, expansion joints, heat shields, protective covers, and other industrial applications requiring durable and consistent seams.
