Enhance your sewing efficiency with this pack of 10 Schmetz 135x17 BLUK industrial sewing machine needles, compatible with DPx17 BLUK systems. Featuring a special non-stick Teflon (BLUKOLD) coating, these needles are designed for industrial lockstitch sewing machines used on synthetic or adhesive-coated materials. They provide smooth stitching, reduced residue build-up, and consistent results even in challenging sewing environments.

Needle Point – Standard (Normal Round Point)

The standard round point features a slim, conical design that easily penetrates a wide range of fabrics. It produces balanced, straight stitches while maintaining excellent seam quality. This makes it suitable for general-purpose industrial sewing applications.

Schmetz BLUKOLD – Non-Stick Teflon Coating for Clean Sewing

The Schmetz BLUKOLD needle is specially engineered with a phosphorated surface and a Teflon non-stick coating, which prevents the adhesion of melted synthetic residues. This innovation keeps the needle cleaner for longer periods than standard chrome-plated versions, reducing skipped stitches, thread breakage, and overheating.

Ideal for use on synthetic fabrics, coated textiles, laminated materials, and vinyl, the BLUKOLD needle ensures smoother fabric penetration and enhanced sewing consistency.
