What is the 130/705 H needle system

The 130/705 H system is the industry standard for household sewing machines and fits on virtually every brand you use at home. The flat side at the top of the shaft makes sure you insert the needle correctly and in the right way, with no fuss or mistakes. This universal needle has a slightly rounded point that pierces both woven fabrics and lightweight knits effortlessly. Because the point is neither too sharp nor too blunt, it causes minimal damage to the fibers, resulting in neat and even stitches. It's this versatility that makes this type of needle a staple in the sewing basket of beginners and experienced sewists alike.
