What is this needle system

The 130/705 H needle system is the standard size for household sewing machines and fits almost every brand and model you have at home. This thin needle in size 70/10 is specially designed for lightweight, fine fabrics where a thicker needle would quickly cause holes or pulled threads. The point is slightly rounded and universally ground, so it works smoothly on both woven fabrics and light knit materials. Thanks to the consistent quality of Schmetz needles, you know exactly what you're getting, the same finish and performance every time. Take a look at our wider range of needles if you're looking for other sizes for your projects.

• Baby clothes and fine children's garments
