NORMAL ROUND POINT "R"

Groz Beckert 135x17 Industrial Sewing Machine Needles

The Groz Beckert 135x17 industrial sewing needle features a normal round point (R) — a classic standard needle shape with a slim, conical profile. Because it gently separates fibers rather than cutting them, it is highly versatile and delivers smooth, balanced stitches across a wide range of materials. The standard round point is so common that no additional point supplement “R” is included in the needle system code.

Its durable chrome coating improves resistance to wear and friction, delivering reliable performance in high-speed and continuous industrial sewing environments. Whether you’re working with lightweight woven fabrics, coated materials, or technical textiles, the 135x17 provides clean penetration and a consistent stitch pattern.
