Schmetz 134 SD1 Size 120 Pack of 10 Needles
Schmetz 134 SD1 Size 120 Pack of 10 Needle
Round Point with small triangular tip "SD1" or "TRI TIP"
This round point with a very small triangular incision cuts approx. 10 % of the stitch hole, 90 % is displaced by the conical round point "R". The result is a straight seam and a tidy seam appearance. The incision is smaller than with a cutting point.
Materials:
- Fine leather
- Clothing made of leather and imitation leather
- Thin, synthetic leather materials
- Materials coated with PVC/PUR, e.g. tarpaulins, tents, coated table cloths
Applications:
- Leather
- Plastic
- Hard fibers
- Films
Highlight:
- The stitch appearance remains the same in all sewing directions when using multi-directional sewing techniques (programmable sewing machines).
For precision sewing of fine leather or faux leather, plastic foils and other “difficult materials”, the "SD1" – round point with small triangular tip – was developed. This point shape constitutes a compromise between a cutting point and a round point (displacement point). The small triangular cutting point at the extreme tip easily pierces the material (around 10 % to 15 %); the remaining 90 % is then opened up using the displacement principle of the round points. The result is a more accurate stitch placement and lower needle deflection than with use of a round point, plus a smaller incision than with use of a cutting point; in short, a straight, neat seam. A stitch density of around six to eight stitches/centimeter can be used.
