Schmetz 251 Size 60 (NM 60 / Size 8) Industrial Sewing Machine Needles – Pack of 10

The Schmetz 251 industrial sewing machine needles are precision-engineered for blindstitch and chainstitch sewing machines. Designed for needle systems 29-CA, 251, LWx3 T, and LWx4 T, these high-quality chrome-coated needles provide smooth, reliable performance on lightweight fabrics and delicate materials.

Needle Point – STANDARD (Normal Round Point)

The Standard (Normal Round Point) features a slim, conical tip that pierces fabric cleanly without cutting the fibres. This ensures smooth, consistent stitching and prevents skipped stitches, even at high sewing speeds.
