LIGHT BALL POINT "FFG/SES"

Groz Beckert 135x17 FFG/SES Industrial Sewing Machine Needles

The Groz Beckert 135x17 FFG/SES needle is a specialised industrial needle with a light ball point (SES), specifically designed to protect delicate fibers in woven and knitted fabrics. Unlike sharp points that cut through material, the SES tip gently displaces yarns by piercing between them — preserving fabric integrity while producing clean, even stitches.

Ideal for both high-speed production and delicate materials, these needles are chrome-coated for durability and smooth operation. Whether you’re working with fine knits, light denim, or laminated textiles, this needle offers reliable results across multiple fabric types.
