MEDIUM BALL POINT "SUK"

Schmetz 287 WK SUK Size 100 – Medium Ball Point Embroidery Needles 

Manufactured by Schmetz, the 287 WK SUK (NM 100 / Size 16) industrial embroidery needles are designed with a SUK medium ball point, making them ideal for coarse knitwear, denim, corsetry, and heavy embroidery applications.

These needles are compatible with single and multihead embroidery machines, offering smooth penetration of fabrics without damaging the fibres. The SUK point is more rounded than the standard SES light ball point, which makes it perfect for thicker or layered textile materials.
