    VEEVUS 10/0 Thread colors...

    Here are some comparative breaking strengths (straight pull) from Veevus:

    “For those interested who are interested, we compared the breaking-strength for the veevus threads with UNI and Benecchi.”

    uni 6/0 = around 930g
    veevus 6/0 = above 1kg

    uni 8/0 = around 450g
    veevus 8/0 = above 1kg

    benecchi 10/0 = around 650g
    veevus 10/0 = around 800g

    benecchi 12/0 = around 450g
    veevus 12/0 = around 530g

    veevus 14/0 = around 520g

    veevus 16/0 = around 430g

    More will be revealed...

    I am curious to try this stuff. How does it lay down? Is it multi stranded so that it lays flat on the hook shank?

    Aaron,

    I'm waiting to get my fingers on some of this thread through one of my bud's in Sweden. It is a relatively new product that is, currently, only available in 4 shops in Denmark...I am hoping that it lays flat off the spool like the Tiemco 16/0...just don't presently have all the info. on it (multi strand, denier...etc.) will kept 'ya in the loop...best to you and yours and a fishfull 2012!!!

    PT/ Tim

    This stuff looks good. Looks stronger than the stuff I'm already using.

    I don´t tie that many tiny flies, but I might be able to help you since I live in Denmark. If you want me to contact one of the shops that carries the thread just let me know.

    Yes Please,

    I checked the shops but couldn't find the thread but than google translate couldn't translate all the words so I might have missed it.

    Many thanks

    I only found it at one of the retailers Bindetråd – Bedste bindetråd fra UTC og Bennechi købes online (the prize is around 3.50 per piece), but I can give them a call tomorrow and ask for further details
