Schmetz ELx705 Chrome Ball Point Serger Overlock Needles Size 80/12

ELx705 Chrome Ball Point Serger Overlock Needles Size 80/12
Item #: ELX-SUKCF80

The essential needle for serging/overlocking.

The SCHMETZ ELx705 Chrome serger medium ball point needle is designed for use in electronic multi-purpose sergers that do the overlock, cover, safety, and mock safety stitches.

This needle has a long groove on both the front and back as well as a slightly larger scarf and a medium ball point.

The chrome finish (CF) reduces heat and wear and aids in slipping through the fabric.

Here's how ELx705 needles vary from home sewing needles:
• Needles have a groove on the front side and back side of the blades to reduce skipped stitches.
• The second long groove is necessary to create chain stitches like overlock and coverlock stitches.
• They have increased strength due to a reinforced blade leading to less breakage and straighter stiches.

Use: Numerous wovens and knits. A great general purpose needle.

Size: 80/12.

Easily identify needles out of the pack ... the shank features a black color code for Serger/Overlock needles.

Quantity: Five needles per card.

Note: Not suitable for use in normal home sewing machines or embroidery machines.

Machines should specify ELx705 system.
