Schmetz Super Universal Needles

When using self-adhesive embroidery backing and spray adhesive or when sewing on self-adhesive hook-and-loop, unpleasant adhesive residues on the needle are common.

The new Super Universal Needle is now putting an end to this, offering industrial grade for household needles too. The key feature that sets the Super Universal Needle apart from other household needles is its particularly smooth non-stick coating. It ensures that significantly less adhesive residue remains on the needle (no needle sticking) and thus also helps to prevent thread breakage.

This effect is underlined even further by the extra-large eye, making the needle particularly suitable for embroidery work. The eye matches that of a 2 NM thicker needle. This means that the eye of a NM 70 Super Universal Needle is similar to the eye of a normal NM 90 needle, for example. The slightly rounded point shape means that the needle can be used with most materials without problems. The blade has special blade against needle breakage and skipped stitches, so that even thick fabrics like jeans are no challenge at all.

Tips
  • The needle eye and the long groove do not become clogged with adhesive backing and foams during embroidery work.
  • The needle is particularly suited for sewing on self-adhesive elements.
  • The wide range of additional characteristics makes the sewing of many difficult materials much easier: This is why “super” is included in the name.

A sewing machine needle can have a life expectancy of one minute to one month and this really depends on the usage and the operator. It is recommended to insert a new needle at the start of every project, or after about eight hours of sewing. Also, be sure to change your needle whenever it becomes bent, dull or develops a burr.

Damaged or worn needles will result in broken or shredded threads.
