Schmetz 16X95 SUK Size 130 Industrial Sewing Machine Needles – Pack of 10

Compatible with: 287 WH SUK, 1738 A SUK, 16X95 SUK, 71X1 SUK (CANU 14:20FB1)

The Schmetz 16X95 SUK Size 130 industrial sewing needles feature a medium ball point (SUK), offering a rounder tip than the SES light ball point. This design gently pushes knitted and stretch threads aside rather than piercing them, which helps reduce the risk of skipped stitches and fabric damage.

With their large Size 130 (NM 130 / Size 21) build, these needles are ideal for heavy knits, stretch textiles, upholstery fabrics, and sportswear materials. The chrome-plated finish provides resistance to wear and heat, ensuring smoother operation and longer life when sewing at industrial speeds.

Key Features:

• SUK Medium Ball Point – Designed for sewing knits and stretch fabrics without damaging fibres.

• Heavy-Duty Size 130 – Perfect for thick or heavy knitted and elastic textiles.

• Chrome-Plated Finish – Reduces friction and improves durability.

• Compatible Systems – Works with 287 WH SUK, 1738 A SUK, 16X95 SUK, and 71X1 SUK.

• Schmetz Reliability – Trusted by professionals for precision and consistency.
