Schmetz Leather Machine Needles

Brand: Schmetz
Colour code: Brown
Size: 100/16
Quantity: 5 needles per pack
Coating: Standard
Special feature: Easy penetration into the material
Point shape: Cutting point LL (twist point)

Features a cutting point to penetrate your material more easily. For use with leather, artificial leather, heavy non-woven synthetics. Do not use on knit or woven fabrics.

The cutting point LL (twist point) cuts easily through leather and similar materials thanks to its cutting action. It also creates an angled stitching line, which gives the seam a decorative look. Please note: Leather Needles are NOT suitable for textiles due to their cutting effect, as woven or knitted fabrics can be severed during sewing.

Suitable fabrics
• Leather
• Hard synthetic leather (only limited suitability with soft synthetic leather: Try the Microtex Needle first, as the carrier material may otherwise be damaged and holes could tear more easily)
• Paper (for processing thin brochures)

Tips
• Suitable for use on all household sewing machines
• The longer the stitch length, the easier it is to see the angled appearance of the stitch and, as a result, the decorative effect of the seam. This effect can be enhanced further by using a thick sewing thread
• Choose a longer stitch length to stop the stitches being torn out. When locking the seam, make sure that the sewing thread is not severed.

System: 130/705 H LL
