Specifications

Specifications

  • System: DBX1 / 1738 / 16x257
  • Shank: 1.62 mm round shank, straight needle with single groove and scarf
  • Overall length: 37.9 mm
  • Stitch type: Lockstitch (class 300)
  • Pack: 10 needles

Choosing your point type

  • Regular point (R): the all-round choice for woven fabrics such as cotton, polyester, shirting and suiting.
  • Ball point (FFG/SES): a slightly rounded tip that pushes between the fibres instead of piercing them. Best for knits, jersey and stretch fabrics, because it helps prevent snags, holes and skipped stitches.

Choosing your size

Use smaller sizes (Nm 60/8 to 80/12) for fine and lightweight fabrics, medium sizes (Nm 90/14 to 100/16) for everyday medium-weight fabrics, and larger sizes (Nm 110/18 to 130/21) for heavyweight fabrics, denim and thicker threads.
