Schmetz Needle Chrome Finish 80 ELX705 CF

Schmetz Chrome Finish ELX705 Needle 80/12 (5-Pack)

 Purpose

 Key Features

• Needle System: ELX705 CF (Chrome Finish) – specialized for sergers and coverstitch machines.

• Size: 80/12 – medium weight, ideal for knits and medium fabrics.

• Double-groove shaft – supports balanced thread loop formation for upper and lower looper coordination.

• Reinforced blade – resists bending and breakage during multi-layer seam sewing.

• Chrome coating – dissipates heat and reduces thread wear at high speed.

• Pack Quantity: 5 needles per card (Genuine Schmetz, German-engineered).

 Compatibility

Bernina L-Series • Baby Lock (Cover Stitch, Triumph, Evolution, Ovation, Acclaim) • Janome CoverPro • Pfaff Coverlock • Viking S21/S25/S27, and other home sergers using the ELX705 system.

(?? Not for standard household sewing machines — use 130/705 H types instead.)

 Recommended Applications

• Coverstitching hems and seams on knitwear.

• Overlock and serger seaming with polyester or stretch thread.

• Decorative chainstitching and elastic insertions.

 Service Center Tip ( NSV Exclusive)

• 6–8 hours of serging, or sooner if stitches skip or thread tension becomes uneven.

• ELX705 only for coverstitch models.

• Pair size 80/12 with medium knits or jersey; use 90/14 for heavier fabrics.

• Chrome finish helps prevent needle heat buildup — excellent for long production runs.
