157-101 OTTO Embroidery Poly Thread #40 5,500 yd. King Cone

The OTTO 157-101 Embroidery Poly Thread #40 is a professional-grade embroidery thread built for high-speed production and clean, consistent results. It is a 100% polyester 120D/2 thread wound on 5,500-yard king cones, so machines run longer between changeovers and larger jobs move without constant stops.  The 157-101 is a strong choice for embroidery shops, decorators, uniform programs, and anyone matching brand colors across a full run.

The performance specs are what matter on the machine. High tenacity means the thread resists breaking under tension, and low elongation keeps stitches from stretching and distorting, so lettering and fine detail hold their shape. Low friction lets it feed smoothly through the needle and tensioners without heat build-up or fraying, and high-speed performance keeps all of that stable when the machine is running fast, which is exactly where cheaper thread starts to fail.

Care Instructions

• Store cones upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Keep cones covered or boxed to prevent dust buildup on the thread.
• Avoid high humidity, since moisture can affect feeding performance.
• Secure loose thread ends so cones do not tangle in storage.
• Handle cones by the base to avoid disturbing the winding.
