How do you sew on VELCRO® Brand tape without breaking thread?

When you sew on your hook and loop by the VELCRO® Brand, make sure you:

– Use a strong thread: Use a durable thread, such as polyester or nylon. These types can withstand the friction and tension when sewing through tougher fabrics.
– Choose the right needle: Use a heavy-duty needle, such as a denim or universal needle, in sizes 90 (14) or 100 (16). These needles can handle even extra-strong VELCRO® Brand pads.
– Adjust machine settings: Lower the thread tension slightly and use a longer stitch length to prevent the needle from piercing the same spot repeatedly.
– Use a walking foot: A walking foot helps move the fabric evenly through the sewing machine. This reduces friction and lowers the chance of the thread breaking.
– Sew slowly: Take your time to ensure the needle can penetrate the fastener without placing too much strain on the thread.
