Schmetz 287WKH Size 80 (NM 80 / Size 12) Industrial Sewing Machine Needles – Pack of 10

The Schmetz 287WKH Size 80 industrial sewing machine needles are designed for medium-weight fabrics, offering exceptional stitch accuracy and consistent performance.

Needle Point – Standard (Normal Round Point)

The Standard (Normal Round Point) has a slim, conical shape that penetrates the fabric cleanly without damaging fibres. It produces neat, balanced stitches and is suitable for a wide variety of general-purpose sewing applications on medium fabrics such as cotton, polyester, blends, and lightweight canvas.

Chrome Coating for Long-Lasting Performance

Each needle features a chrome-plated finish that reduces friction and heat build-up, allowing for cooler operation and longer life. This ensures consistent stitch quality and fewer thread breaks during extended use — perfect for professional garment production environments.
