The beloved Semperfli Spyder thread, renowned for its excellence in tying tiny flies, has been elevated with the introduction of the 18/0 Classic Waxed. This traditional tying thread, designed with semi-translucent properties, allows it to subtly take on the hue of the fly pattern, enhancing the overall appearance. The 18/0 Classic Waxed consists of two delicately twisted strands, providing it with a remarkable breaking strain of approximately 400gm. This is a significant improvement over other threads in the market, such as Uni Caenis with a breaking strain of 85g and Danville Spiderweb at 142gm, offering fly tiers unparalleled strength and reliability for small fly creations.

The dual-strand design of the 18/0 Classic Waxed not only ensures durability but also allows for a relatively flat lay during the tying process, facilitating a smoother, more controlled application. Targeted at fly tiers who specialize in small patterns, the 18/0 Classic Waxed presents a superior alternative to traditionally weaker threads like Uni Caenis or Whisp. The development team's goal was to craft a micro thread that combines the essential attributes of strength and the ability to lay flat, making the 18/0 Classic Waxed an ideal choice for those seeking to enhance their fly tying with a thread that truly stands up to the demands of crafting delicate flies.
