LIGHT BALL POINT "SES"

Schmetz 29-S SES Industrial Sewing Machine Needles – Light Ball Point

Engineered specifically for button sewing applications, the Schmetz 29-S SES industrial needles are ideal for high-speed, precision stitching in shirts, jeans, suits, and blouses. These needles are compatible with 175x1, TQx1, and 1985 needle systems and are trusted by garment manufacturers worldwide.

Featuring a light ball point (SES) tip, the needle gently separates threads instead of piercing them, preventing fabric damage — especially useful for fine to medium knitwear, light denim, and woven fabrics. The high-quality chrome finish reduces wear and extends needle life, even under demanding sewing conditions.
