SCHMETZ 62X45 BLUK/149X5 BLUK/TVX5 BLUK SIZE 140/22 INDUSTRIAL SEWING MACHINE NEEDLES

Schmetz 149X5 BLUK Size 140 (NM 140 / Size 22) Industrial Sewing Machine Needles – Pack of 10

The Schmetz 149X5 BLUK Size 140 industrial sewing machine needles are expertly designed for sewing sticky, coated, or synthetic materials such as vinyl, PVC, laminated fabrics, and plastics. The Teflon (BLUK) non-stick coating reduces friction and prevents melted material build-up, ensuring clean, smooth stitching and fewer skipped stitches.

Needle Point – Standard (Normal Round Point)

The Standard Round Point offers a slim, conical shape ideal for general-purpose chainstitch applications. It pierces the fabric cleanly and evenly, maintaining consistent stitch quality — even on tough or adhesive materials. When combined with the BLUK non-stick coating, it delivers exceptional stitch accuracy and prevents residue adhesion.

BLUK (Teflon-Coated Non-Stick Finish)

The Schmetz BLUKOLD needle series features a roughened, phosphorated surface treated with a durable non-stick Teflon coating. This advanced finish prevents the build-up of melted synthetic materials and adhesive residues, keeping the needle cleaner for longer and reducing issues such as thread breakage, friction heat, and skipped stitches.
