MOX is manufactured by braiding continuous filament polyester, and is produced in an extensive range of sizes. MOX construction is important in applications where appearance matters. It is also used in high strength applications and for decorative stitching. Mox threads, after braiding and dyeing, are either lubricated for machine sewing applications or are evenly waxed for hand sewing.
