The construction of the thread, with the continuous filament polyester core and soft staple polyester wrap, delivers high seam strength and excellent performance.
Our AS range of sewing threads are designed to meet the needs of outdoor performance sportswear, woven outerwear and fashion jackets.
In drier atmospheric conditions the lower static and lower dynamic friction values of Coats Epic AS minimise the attraction of down towards the needle, helping to prevent down leakage through needle holes.
The lower dynamic friction values of Coats Epic AS also enhances the uniformity of the stitch formation giving you neat and well balanced seams.
Coats Epic AS has outstanding sewability and provides solutions for oil-sensitive materials such as CO fabrics. In addition, it allows for improved sewing performance on complex materials due to its higher heat shield.

Why Choose Coats Epic™ AS?
- Creates a smoother, softer handle to the sewn seam when compared with conventional sewing threads
- Allows lower tension settings, improving the stitch balance and providing neater and flatter seams
- Excellent static and dynamic friction values reduce leakage of “down” through the needle hole
- Provides solutions for oil-sensitive materials such as CO fabrics
- Allows for improved sewing performance on complex materials due to its higher heat shield
- Provides outstanding sewability
- The reduced frictional values allow smoother thread pull off through the sewing machine helping to deliver longer lasting seams
