ABSTRACT:
A thread conditioner to prevent fraying, tangling and associated problems is made from silicone rubber material, such as a silicone elastomer having a physical form of rubber-crepe. The material can be cut from a bulk quantity, rolled, cut into cubes, pressed, and packaged. The conditioner is applied to one end of a length of thread by pressing the thread into the material and pulling the thread across the material, with enough pressure to embed the thread into the material as it is pulled through so that the thread is coated on all surfaces with the material.
