Schmetz 287WKH Size 100 (NM 100 / Size 16) Industrial Sewing Machine Needles – Pack of 10

The Schmetz 287WKH Size 100 industrial sewing machine needles are ideal for heavy fabrics and dense materials, offering maximum strength, precision, and durability. Part of the Schmetz 287 WK series, these needles are trusted for their superior stitch quality and consistent performance in industrial lockstitch machines used for upholstery, denim, and canvas sewing.

Needle Point – Standard (Normal Round Point)

The Standard (Normal Round Point) features a slim, conical tip that penetrates fabric cleanly without damaging fibres. It creates smooth, uniform stitches, making it perfect for general sewing applications on heavier woven materials such as denim, canvas, twill, or upholstery fabrics.

Chrome Coated for Long-Lasting Performance

Each needle is chrome-plated to withstand high temperatures and reduce friction during continuous operation. This coating helps prevent skipped stitches, thread fraying, and premature wear — ensuring longer life and consistent results under heavy use.
