FireLine Braided Beading Thread – Smoke (All Sizes) The Pink Bead Shop

FireLine is the industry-standard braided beading thread for designs that demand strength, durability, and a clean professional finish. This smoke-coloured FireLine is perfect when you want your thread to visually recede behind darker gemstones, crystals, and seed beads while still delivering exceptional performance.

Each spool is 50 yd (45 m) of strong, abrasion-resistant braided thread, ideal for gemstone bracelet stringing, bead weaving, loom work, and any project that needs extra security. Choose from four break-strength options so you can match the diameter and strength to your design:

4 lb / 1.8 kg – 0.005 in / 0.13 mm – great for detailed bead-weaving and lighter beads

6 lb / 2.7 kg – 0.006 in / 0.15 mm – a versatile everyday weight for most gemstone and crystal projects

8 lb / 3.6 kg – 0.007 in / 0.18 mm – ideal for heavier beads and structured designs

10 lb / 4.5 kg – 0.008 in / 0.20 mm – best for large beads and high-tension projects

Simply select your preferred strength from the dropdown to stock exactly what you need for your beading toolkit.
