A needle remains that cheapest part of any sewing machine, plus the one deciding how stitches look — more than thread, tension, or presser foot. Machine Needles belongs among such accessories.
Change one after roughly eight hours of sewing, certainly once stitches start skipping, or your machine sounds laboured going in. A blunt needle pulls threads from weave, which nothing afterwards repairs.
Thickness follows fabric: fine beneath light wovens, strong across denim plus canvas. Point shape decides, alongside that, whether a needle parts weave, or pierces it. A small reserve pays off — needles break exactly when no spare sits inside your house.
What Schmetz Maschinen Sticknadeln Mix 75-90 is suitable for
- Every common domestic sewing machine.
- Fabrics demanding their own point shape.
- Sewing rooms wanting a reserve on hand.
Frequently asked questions
When should a needle be changed?
After roughly eight hours of sewing, certainly once stitches skip, or your machine sounds laboured going in. A blunt needle pulls threads from weave, which nothing afterwards repairs.
Which thickness do I need?
Something fine beneath light wovens, something strong across denim plus canvas. One rule holds: as fine as possible, as strong as necessary — thick needles leave visible holes.
Will it fit my machine?
Across every common domestic machine, yes, since they share one needle system. Industrial machines plus certain older models want their own — there, check its manual.
Why do my needles keep breaking?
Usually through pulling cloth rather than merely guiding it, or through needles too fine beneath that material. A wrongly fitted foot, plus pins left inside its path, break needles too.
