Schmetz HAX1SP 15X1 Serger 90/14 #SHAX1SP-90

Description

medium ball-point tip, making it ideal for stretchy or elastic materials without damaging the knit structure.

wider groove, which accommodate thicker serger or embroidery threads and support reliable thread delivery under high-speed stitching or when handling dense seams.

special flat shank and scarf design bring the needle closer to the hook/looper mechanism, creating a larger loop that’s easier for the looper to catch — significantly reducing skipped stitches on stretch fabrics.

 these needles deliver consistent performance, prolong needle life, and help ensure smooth, balanced seams — whether you’re working on knits, fleece, velour, stretch jerseys, or elastic garments.
