REVERSE TWIST SPEAR POINT NEEDLES "VR/ R TW SP"
Schmetz 134 VR / 135X8 R TW SP Industrial Sewing Machine Needles – VR Point (Reverse Twist Spear Point) – For Leather, Bags & Footwear
The Schmetz 134 VR industrial needle is designed for precision stitching in hard, dry leather and dense materials. Featuring the VR (Reverse Twist Spear Point) — also known as R TW SP — it creates a rhombic incision at a 45° angle to the seam direction, resulting in a decorative seam that is slightly inclined to the left.
What sets the VR point apart is its enhanced cutting effect compared to the standard "LR" point. With four cutting edges, the VR needle provides better stitch formation, zero needle deflection, and a crisp seam line — even through thick materials.
