## Overview

The LIBERATOR® 40 is a silver-coated Vectran™ conductive thread engineered for e-textiles and wearable electronics. With a resistance of just 1 ohm per foot, it offers 10 times the conductivity of stainless steel thread. Its polymer core is 5 times stronger than steel, providing unmatched tensile strength while remaining flexible and easy to sew or embroider. Designed to maintain conductivity even after oxidation and withstand temperatures up to 200°C, this thread is the ultimate choice for professionals pushing the boundaries of smart textile design.

## Description

LIBERATOR is a metal-clad polymer fiber with a polymer inner layer surrounded by highly conductive metal; creating a unique, highly conductive thread/yarn. The core polymer of Liberator­­­, Vectran by Kuraray, is a high-performance multifilament yarn spun from liquid crystal polymer (LCP). Pound for pound Vectran is 5 times stronger than steel and ten times stronger than aluminum. Through Syscom’s capabilities, this exceptionally strong and durable fiber becomes the foundation of Liberator; the remarkable properties of Vectran with conductive metal layers. Due to Syscom's proprietary thread coating process, the yarns will retain their high conductivity after the silver has been oxidized.Thread Count: 40Resistance: 1 ohm/ftYarn Diameter: 0.0070 inBase Fiber Denier: 200 DENMetalized Denier: 1122 DENOperating Temperature: Up to 200°C

Review: Sturdy and Reliable Thread – Not Ideal for Gloves, But Great Quality - I purchased this conductive thread with the intention of adding touch screen ability to my gloves, but unfortunately, it didn’t work out for that purpose. However, the quality of the thread itself is outstanding! The thread is thick, sturdy, and didn’t knot or get tangled at all, which made it very easy to work with. It has excellent tensile strength, and the metal layer adheres well to the polymer inner thread. Although it didn’t provide the results I was hoping for with my gloves, I can see how this would be perfect for other E-textiles projects. Highly recommend for those looking for reliable and strong conductive thread!
Review: I'm impressed! - Where most stainless steel thread feels like exactly that, a wire, this does not. It feels like fabric thread. It does conduct electricity though. I've tested it up to 6 watts at 12v for three days straight and it's no worse for wear (pun intended). Looking forward to seeing what I can do with this stuff! Very cool!

## Features

- This highly conductive thread (1 Ohm/ft) is made of a polymer inner layer surrounded by a metal outer layer, roughly 10 times more conductive than 100% stainless steel thread
- This thread is easily sewn, soldered, and embroidered
- The inner polymer yarn has an extremely high tensile strength, roughly 5 times stronger than steel, and remains flexible like regular thread
- Superb conductive/metal layer adhesion to the inner polymer thread
- This is an E-textiles grade material and is not suitable for use in Aerospace

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the maximum current it can support?**
A: We have tested 3ft. sample lengths of Liberator 40 and found that the material can carry 1A of current without any noticeable degradation or change in resistance.

**Q: it is washable?**
A: Both Liberator and AmberStrand fibers have undergone various tests for washability. Some of the testing involves garment washing while some involve washing of the fiber. Testing has shown various results depending on the method, although the fiber typically maintains conductivity through numerous wash cycles and outperforms most other metal clad fibers.

**Q: Is the thread suitable for making grounding/earthing products?**
A: The conductive yarn is not UL rated nor has it been characterized for current handling.  We have had an independent test lab do a 'Fusing' test designed to measure time to interrupt using 3 amps and it did not fuse/interrupt.  But we have not characterized it for grounding specifically.

**Q: Do you have shipments to Mexico?**
A: Thank you for your question Carlos. The shipments are fulfilled by Amazon. If you are able to complete the purchase, they should be able to ship to you.
