This conductive hook and loop is perfect for use as a switch in your electronic textile projects. The material is a base of DuPont nylon which undergoes one of the world's most advanced nano silver layer curing techniques which incorporates silver into the base material, that is then woven into the hook and loop fabric. As well as being the perfect conductive fastening for your art and design projects, this fabric has superb anti-electromagnetic radiation, electrical conductivity, anti-static, antibacterial deodorant properties.

• 100% Silver plated fibre
• Lifetime 10,000 openings/closings
• Surface resistivity 1Ω/cm
• EM Shielding better than 60dB
• Excellent holding power
• Conducts along its length and across the gap
• Can easily be cut to size
• Size 100mm length and 25mm width

This highly conductive thread is ideal for introducing electronics into textile projects. The thread looks and behaves like conventional sewing thread with the added bonus of being highly conductive.

• Conductive thread on a 6m bobbin
• Thread has a resistance of approximately 0.4Ω/cm, or 12Ω/foot
• Resistance does not vary significantly from one length of thread to the next as some are reported to do, so you should be able to use this thread without concern for "dead" sections
• The thread has a breaking strain of around 4.2kg (9.3 pounds)
• It comprises roughly 96 individual filaments, each coated with a micron-thick layer of natural silver. 16 of these filaments are wound together to form an initial twist; two of these twists are then twisted together, and finally three of these twists are combined
• In thread terms, thickness is approximately 18 denier
• This thread does not fray: there are no loose ends of filaments except where they have been cut

This battery holder with switch from Light Stitches has been designed to make E-textiles even easier. It has a small slide switch located on the circuit board for controlling the power to your Light Stitches projects.

• Large holes for easy attachment of conductive thread
• Manufacturer's part MW912692

This coin cell holder has an easy pop-in, pop out feature that makes changing the battery extremely easy. The feet of the holder have small holes that allow it to be sewn within textiles.

• Press top to release battery
• Accepts CR2032 size lithium coin cells

This conductive thread from Madeira is a high wear resistant and stable thread that has a whole host of applications. A special manufacturing process results in the thread having durable, pure silver plating around every single filament. The silver plating guarantees optimum conductivity, especially vital around contact points.The highly conductive thread, as well as giving this specific technical function, also retains the highly desirable textile characteristics of flexibility, resilience and easy processing.The thread is supplied on a reel of 150m.The resistance rating for Madeira HC thread is as follows:98-6098 – Resistance: < 100Ω/m

• Excellent conductivity
• Suitable for use as either top thread or under thread
• Can be used with an embroidery machine
• Maximum number of LEDs per battery 5

The highly conductive thread, as well as giving this specific technical function, also retains the highly desirable textile characteristics of flexibility, resilience and easy processing.

The thread is supplied on a reel of 250m and is a slightly finer thread than the 150m version, ideal for delicate work or conductive gloves.

The resistance rating for Madeira HC thread is as follows:98-6099 – Resistance: < 300R

• Excellent conductivity
• Suitable for use as either top thread or under thread
• Maximum number of LEDs per battery 5
