About Magna-Glide Classic #60 Bobbins
The Magna-Glide Classic is Fil-Tec's premium plastic-core pre-wound bobbin — #60 weight polyester thread wound on a firm plastic core that maintains consistent tension from the first stitch to the last. Each bobbin contains approximately 210 yards, and the plastic core delivers more consistent pull-out tension for longarm machines than cardboard-core alternatives. Available in case quantities for high-volume studios.

The Black Magna-Glide Classic is one of the two most essential bobbins in any active longarm studio. For all dark fabric quilts, the black plastic-core bobbin delivers clean, consistent tension throughout the bobbin's full run with virtually no lint.
