Schmetz 175X3 Size 70 (NM 70 / Size 10) Industrial Sewing Machine Needles – Pack of 10

The Schmetz 175X3 Size 70 industrial sewing machine needles are designed for button sewing and button attaching machines used in professional garment production. Featuring the STU (Heavy Rounded Point), these needles are ideal for sewing medium to fine materials where strong, consistent stitching is required without damaging the fabric.

Needle Point – STU (Heavy Rounded Point for Button Sewing)

The STU point offers a heavy rounded tip that gently parts fabric threads rather than cutting through them. This design is perfect for button sewing applications, ensuring smooth penetration and a neat stitch appearance while preventing skipped stitches or material tearing.
