Schmetz ELx705 needles 80/12

Special sewing machines such as overlock and coverlock sewing machines often require special needle systems such as the ELx705. These special Schmetz ELx705 needles 80/12 are adapted to the requirements of the respective machine model and cannot be exchanged for other household or overlock needles.

The SCHMETZ ELx705 overlock needle - like most household needles - has a flat plunger for easy positioning in the sewing machine.

The special feature of the ELx705 overlock needle, which distinguishes it from other household needles, is the second thread groove.it supports stitch formation for chain stitches such as overlock or coverlock and ensures that only a small amount of thread tension is needed for stitch formation.

Like the universal needle, the ELx705 has a slightly rounded needle tip, making it universally applicable and suitable for processing numerous material types.
