Cutting points - needles for stitching leather and other materials

For the sewing of leather and similar materials (thick card, sheet rubber, synthetic shaft materials etc.) the needles used have points with cutting edges. Because of their properties of incision, needles with cutting points penetrate the material more easily and cause less needle temperature than round points. Materials with a homogenous structure are weakened by cutting but their general strength does not deteriorate noticeably if the correct point shape is selected and the correct stitch length is maintained when sewing.

Special coatings for special applications: SCHMETZ SERV 100 and SCHMETZ NIT

To protect industrial sewing machine needles against corrosion they are coated with hard chrome, but also to provide a better glideability, as this coating reduces friction during the sewing process. For standard requirements, this conventional coating is more than sufficient. Challenging sewing processes sometimes require the use of needles with a special coating, for instance in the processing of abrasive materials or fabrics with a high man-made fiber content.
