DCx27 SKF, B-27 SKF – SCHMETZ industrial overlock needles for heavyweight knit fabrics, 10 pcs.

DCx27 SKF, B-27 SKF are SCHMETZ industrial overlock needles for coarse knits and fine stretch fabrics. The distinctly rounded ball point of the SKF needle helps push aside coarser knit loops, reducing the risk of breaking or damaging the fabric threads.

SKF needle point features

SKF (Heavy Ball Point) has a heavily rounded ball point. Its shape is designed to push aside coarse, wide knit loops so the needle is less likely to pierce or cut the threads themselves.

SKF is more rounded than SES and SUK. It is suitable for knitted fabrics whose structure requires the threads to be pushed aside gently.

Suitable materials

• Coarse knits with larger knit loops.
• Fine stretch fabrics with coated elastomer threads.
• Stretch knits that require the threads to be pushed aside gently.

Compatibility with industrial overlock machines

Important: SCHMETZ also offers the SKL point type for very coarse knits and particularly stretchy fabrics. The choice depends on the size of the knit loops and the fabric's stretch.
