SCHMETZ 62X45 SUK/149X5 SUK/TVX5 SUK SIZE 80/12 INDUSTRIAL SEWING MACHINE NEEDLES

Schmetz 149X5 SUK Size 80 (NM 80 / Size 12) Industrial Sewing Machine Needles – Pack of 10

The Schmetz 149X5 SUK Size 80 industrial sewing machine needles are engineered for medium-weight woven and knitted fabrics, offering smooth stitching performance and durability. Featuring the SUK (Medium Ball Point) and a chrome-coated finish, these needles are designed to prevent fabric damage, skipped stitches, and thread breakage — even under high-speed sewing conditions.

Needle Point – SUK (Medium Ball Point)

The SUK Medium Ball Point is rounder than the “SES” light ball point, allowing the needle to gently push aside fabric fibres rather than piercing them. This makes it ideal for knitwear, jersey, and stretch fabrics, producing consistent, professional-quality stitches while maintaining fabric integrity.
