What they call upholstery thread is usually v69, aka: T70 bonded nylon thread. It has about 11 pounds breaking strength. You can buy Cowboy bonded nylon or polyester thread in 8 ounce and 16 ounce spools from Toledo Industrial Sewing Machines. Bob Kovar is the owner and is an advertiser here. I use Cowboy thread from him and it works just fine. He has multiple sizes, from v69 through v346, and possibly other sizes outside that range. He also has all manner of sewing machine needles and spare parts.
