Schmetz 16X95 SES Size 120 Industrial Sewing Machine Needles – Pack of 10

Compatible with: 287 WH SES, 1738 A SES, 16X95 SES, 71X1 SES (CANU 14:20EB1)

The Schmetz 16X95 SES Size 120 industrial sewing needles are equipped with a light ball point (SES), specifically designed for use on woven and knitted fabrics. The SES tip gently displaces fabric threads by sliding into the gaps rather than cutting them, reducing the risk of fibre breakage while ensuring smooth, durable seams.

Built in Size 120 (NM 120 / Size 19), these needles are ideal for medium-heavy to heavy fabrics, making them suitable for apparel, knitwear, upholstery textiles, and industrial sewing projects. The chrome coating further enhances durability, reduces heat and friction, and extends working life in high-speed lockstitch applications.

Key Features:

• SES Light Ball Point – Protects fabric by displacing rather than piercing threads.

• Heavy Size 120 – Suitable for medium-heavy to heavy woven and knitted fabrics.

• Chrome Finish – Extends needle life and ensures consistent performance under continuous use.
