Needle colors

In order to make it easier to recognize needles for household machines taken out of the packaging, the SCHMETZ company uses color markings on the cone of the stock.

• - UNIVERSAL (STANDARD) - no markings
• - JERSEY BALL POINT (WITH A BALL - for jersey and knitted fabrics) - orange
• - STRETCH - yellow
• - JEANS/DENIM - blue
• - MICROTEX (for microfibre and silk) - purple
• - EMBROIDERY (with a larger embroidery eyelet) - red
• - OUILTING (for quilting and patchwork) - green

Stocking test

If you sew fabrics that are susceptible to damage (especially knitted fabrics) and you are not sure whether the tip of the needle will not damage the fabric, use a simple test. Prick the stretched (old) stocking several times with the needle, if the stitches do not fly, sew without fear!

How to store needles

Needles should be stored in factory packaging - never in bulk, because it causes damage to the tip, and this leads to irreversible losses in the form of damage to the material.

We invite you to buy needles for sewing various materials, additional bobbins and feet for the machine. You will find everything in the "Accessories" category
