Groz-Beckert® #16 Leather Sewing Machine Needles 135x16 Twist Point (10 pack)

Groz-Beckert^® #16 Leather Sewing Machine Needles 135x16 Twist Point (10 pack) are industrial leather needles that feature a round shank and a sharp point twisted at a 45-degree angle from the eye.

Are you looking for a quicker, easier alternative to hand stitching to speed up your leatherworking process? Then a Groz-Beckert twist-point sewing machine needle is the way to go. Instead of using a pricking iron and an awl to create stitch holes in leather, use a twist needle to create holes and sew at the same time. You'll get the artisanal, handcrafted look you want in a much shorter timeframe.

The tips of these specialty needles are slanted 45 degrees to the right instead of running parallel to the needle eye. This results in slightly elevated stitches that may slant a bit to the left depending on the leather you use. For best results, use a twist needle to sew short or medium stitches in light leather.

As an added bonus, all Groz-Beckert needles are free of burrs. Burrs can make it difficult to insert the needle into a sewing machine, as well as cause thread separation and skipped stitches. Once you start sewing leather goods with high-quality Groz-Beckert needles, you'll wonder how you ever went without them.

Needle sizes are listed two ways: by size and measurement. So, a #16 needle is the same as a 100.
