Sewing Machine Needles

Sewing Machine Needles are the specialized needles used in a sewing machine. It must always be sharp and straight for smooth sewing.

                     

The needle thread and the fabric combination are very important. Using a wrong combination such as heavy fabric like denim with a small needle may bend or break the needle. The lower the thread number the thicker the thread and higher the needle number the thicker the needle. (For replacing the needle hold the needle with the left hand and using the screwdriver turn the needle clamp screw anti clockwise to remove the needle. Replace the new needle with the flat side toward the back of machine until it touches needle stopper and then tighten the needle clamp).
