Needles by application
- Sewing machine needles for the clothing industryFrom everyday seams to specialist finishes, we will help you choose the right needle for the job.
- Sewing machine needles for leather and technical textilesLeather, coated fabrics and technical textiles are hard on needles, especially where different materials are sewn together. The right point (a cutting point for leather, a cloth point for woven material) and the right special-purpose needle keep production reliable and the seams clean.
- Machine needles for embroideryNeedles that keep stitching cleanly at high embroidery speeds, across a wide range of materials and yarns.
- Machine needles and awls for shoe makingNeedles and awls for stitching shoe bottoms and soles. A sole-stitching needle usually has a hook instead of an eye: the awl pierces the material first, then the hook pulls the thread through the hole. Some needles do both jobs at once.
