I'm not using it for sewing sails
I got this to whip the ends of rope to keep it from fraying. The string is a good weight and holds together well, the needle is strong enough for what I am doing so overall pretty happy witb it. I did get other string colors too so I can color code the ropes and I would say thisnis the most waxy sting for better or worse will depend on what you are doing with it.

I love that it glides smoothly through the fabric, which is essential when working with sails.
It's been a game-changer for my sailing needs. The kit comes with everything you need for quick repairs, making it incredibly handy. The waxed thread is strong and durable, and I love that it glides smoothly through the fabric, which is essential when working with sails.I primarily use it for patching up my sails, and the needle is just the right size for getting into tight spots. Whether it’s a small tear or reinforcing seams, this kit has made my repairs straightforward and efficient. The waxed thread doesn’t fray easily, so I feel confident that my patches will hold up over time.I’ve also found it useful for my pool cover. After a season of exposure to the elements, it needed some TLC. The kit worked perfectly for stitching up small rips, and the wax helps prevent future wear. I appreciate that it’s versatile enough to tackle both my sailing gear and pool maintenance.Overall, I highly recommend the T.W. Evans Cordage Wax Sail Kit. It’s a must-have for any sailor or pool owner looking for a reliable, easy-to-use repair solution. This kit has saved me time and money, and I’m really impressed with its quality!

Thinner than expected
Seems like normal sized sewing thread.

A dream to work with
This stuff is a dream to work with. It is heavily waxed and makes the perfect whipping twine for line up to about 1/2 inch. For bigger line, a heavier twine would be in order. The included needle is not a true sailmaker's needle, but it is adequate.

Great for whipping!
I know that the description for this product says that it is for repairing sails but it is also perfect for whipping the ends of rope - probably for any rope up to an inch or so in diameter. If the rope is larger than that you would most likely want to use a larger sized whipping cord.Fair price, perfect for what I needed, and arrived on time.

Just What I Needed
It has strong string to sew up My pants and tents. The string and needle Is a perfect match, It takes the guess work out of matching a needle with the string

Muy bueno
Este hilo encerado lo uso para coser cuero y piel. Me agrada que el hilo es redondo y no plano como muchos otros, lo cual le da un mejor aspecto a las costuras. Muy recomendable.

Great option to repair a pop up camper canvas.
I intended to use to repair a pop up camper. I could not use the included needle because it was too big but the cordage was perfect for the job.

Muy resistente.
Lo uso para cocer cuero. Lo recomiendo. Aunque es algo caro y no es mucho hilo.
