SCHMETZ 2018 SES/175X3 SES/TQX3 SES SIZE 125/20 INDUSTRIAL SEWING MACHINE NEEDLES

Schmetz 175X3 SES Size 125 (NM 125 / Size 20) Industrial Sewing Machine Needles – Pack of 10

The Schmetz 175X3 SES Size 125 industrial sewing machine needles are designed for button sewing, lockstitch, and general garment production where reliable, smooth stitching is required on medium to heavy materials. Featuring the SES (Light Ball Point), these needles are ideal for woven, knitted, and stretch fabrics, ensuring precise penetration without fibre damage.

Needle Point – SES (Light Ball Point)

The SES light ball point allows the needle to gently separate fabric threads rather than cutting them, reducing the risk of skipped stitches, laddering, and material damage. This makes it ideal for elastic fabrics, jersey, polyester blends, and medium-weight textiles, ensuring clean, durable stitch formation even in high-speed sewing applications.

Built for Industrial Reliability

Crafted by Schmetz Germany, these needles are made to exacting standards for consistent, long-lasting performance. The chrome coating improves heat resistance and wear protection, while the straight blade and smooth finish support stable stitch quality in demanding sewing operations.
