MEDIUM BALL POINT "SUK"

Schmetz 62X45 SUK / 149X5 SUK / TVX5 SUK Industrial Sewing Machine Needles – Medium Ball Point 

These Schmetz SUK point industrial needles are expertly engineered for demanding fabrics such as coarse knitwear, stone-washed denim, and corsetry materials. The SUK (Medium Ball Point) design gently pushes fabric threads aside rather than piercing them, reducing the risk of snags and maintaining material integrity—especially important in elastic and textured fabrics.

Chrome-coated for longevity and high-speed performance, these needles are perfect for commercial and industrial applications that demand strength, consistency, and clean stitching results.
