MEDIUM BALL POINT "SUK"

Schmetz 29-S SUK Industrial Sewing Machine Needles – Medium Ball Point

These Schmetz 29-S SUK needles are specially engineered for button sewing applications where strength and durability are required. Compatible with 1985, 175x1, and TQx1 needle systems, these needles are ideal for heavy-duty use in garments like jeans, corsetry, and coarse knitwear.

The SUK (medium ball point) tip is slightly rounder than the SES light ball point, making it perfect for coarser fabrics where stronger displacement is needed to avoid thread breakage or skipped stitches. With a chrome-coated surface, these needles provide a long-lasting and smooth sewing experience under high-speed industrial conditions.
