SCHMETZ Jean & Denim Sewing Machine Needles - Precision Needles for Heavy Fabric, Size 110/18, 5-Needle Cards, Pack of 1

great needles ! these are working fine for my craft project making rope bowls !

As I mentioned in a different review, I was on a quest for a machine needle to handle a tough assignment. I needed to sew multiple doubled seams of ballistic nylon. This is a tough fabric similar to canvas, only less "give" or stretch. I purchased two different HD needles for the project. This is one of them. This needle is spec'd as a Jean and Denim needle. Not exactly what I was sewing, but canvas style material is not too different. I figured the ballistic nylon would survive the process if the needle would. Turns out I was right. The needle handled the material without too much difficulty as long as I didn't push it too hard. Needle marks were minimal, and in fact the sewing went along quite smoothly. After 15 min or so I decided to try the other needle I purchased instead of this one. Why?? Well, I'll just tell you.!! Since I am a guy who handles all of his own projects and because no one is around to criticize my choices too much, I thought I would try to speed up the operation a little. The other needle was a 120/20 and was enough larger to make me think that I could move the job on a little faster without breaking needles -- so I did.! In any event, THIS needle never failed me. It stayed sharp even through the tough ballistic nylon and never gave me any trouble. I never broke a needle and as long as you keep the speeds under control, I don't think this needle will ever fail. VERY pleased.! I can't help but think that I now have one less excuse for not doing my backed up sewing.! Love this needle.

Best on the market.

I used these needles to sew a canvas boat bemini top and it worked very well. I expected to break a needle or two, but none were broken.

After breaking a few needles sewing denim I decided to try these and they are perfect just wish I bought them sooner

These needles are the ones you need if you are hemming jeans. They are sharp and durable and inexpensive. I am always pleased with these needles and keep them on hand always. Good seller and customer service as well.

Worked very well for duck cloth.

Great needles. Easily goes through several layers of 500D nylon plus hook and loop without bending or breaking at all. I clearly overbought.

Para mi son la mejor calidad de agujas!!!! No hay más!

just what I wanted and they did the job fine.
