Sew with confidence on tough materials like leather, canvas, and coated fabrics using this pack of 10 Schmetz 135x16 DIA industrial sewing machine needles, compatible with DPx16 DIA systems. Designed for industrial lockstitch sewing machines, these chrome-coated needles feature a DI (Diamond Point) for precision cutting, clean penetration, and long-lasting durability in heavy-duty sewing applications.

Needle Point – DI (Diamond Point)

The DI (Diamond Point) needle creates a rhombic incision along the seam direction, resulting in a clean, straight, and recessed stitch. Its four sharp cutting edges make it easy to penetrate hard, dense materials, ensuring smooth operation and minimal resistance. This point type is ideal for leather, synthetic leather, coated textiles, upholstery, and heavy canvas.
