• Upholstery
• Plastics, cardboard, heavy pressboard, paper

For good and economical sewing of very hard, dry types of leather – for example in production of heavy boots or products involving plastics, thick compressed cardboard or coated material – needles of the "D" point shape are used. Needles with "D" points make one of the most effective incisions of all the cutting point needles. In addition, the symmetrical point shape ensures that the needle is almost never deflected, so that the seam is straight because well centered. The star shaped stitch hole produced by the "D" point is unfortunately never quite filled by the sewing thread, so that a very large stitch hole remains visible in the material. The effective incision properties of "DH" and "D" points can lead to thread damage when bartacking at the beginning and the end of the seam.
