149X5 BLUK TEFLON COATED NEEDLES

Schmetz 62X45 BLUK / 149X5 BLUK / TVX5 BLUK Industrial Sewing Machine Needles – BLUKOLD Teflon Coated

These Schmetz BLUKOLD-coated industrial needles are designed for smooth, uninterrupted stitching on synthetic and sticky materials. Featuring the STANDARD (Normal Round Point), these needles offer precise piercing without damaging fabrics and are especially effective in high-speed production environments.

What makes these needles unique is the BLUKOLD Teflon-like coating—a special non-stick surface with a roughened, phosphorated texture that drastically reduces the build-up of adhesive and melted residues from synthetic materials. This coating helps keep the needle clean for longer, reducing skipped stitches, thread breakage, and costly downtime.
