Our high‑quality embroidery needles stand out for their premium quality and work reliably in all common embroidery machines.
We also offer needle points for a wide variety of fabric types:
- Round Point (R) – For tightly woven fabrics such as denim, twill, and corduroy. Ensures clean needle penetrations without fraying.
- Light/Medium Ball Point (S) – The universal solution for changing materials. Perfect for light to heavy fabrics, dense knits, fleece, and terry cloth.
- Medium/Large Ball Point (B) – For loosely knitted fabrics, knitwear, and thick sweatshirts. The ball point gently displaces the yarns and prevents holes in the fabric.
- Special Point (Q) – (“Q‑ball point”) A round point with an extra‑fine ball—developed for particularly gentle stitching.
