SZ 125/20 ORGAN 15x1 Sewing Machine Needles 130/705 705H Leather Denim Sunbrella

SZ 125/20 ORGAN 15x1 Sewing Machine Needles 130/705 705H Leather Denim Sunbrella are the strongest needles that will fit in a Janome HD3000. These needles made doing Sunbrella patches on my boat doable... Won't do thick leather. Heavier duty needles have round shanks and will not fit in most good home level machines.

Extra needles for machine .

Very high quality finish and seller sent item fast with no problems! Works great with my vintage Singer machines to do heavy upholstery using V69 and V92 thread with no problems! I will keep buying these!

I watched a YouTube video on making masks where a guy recommended using denim needles to easily go through the many layers that quality handcrafted masks require. Once I switched to these needles, I had very few problems sewing through 5 layers of cotton and interfacing - it struggled a bit with 7 layers (adding the side stirrups for the elastic) but that may be because my sewing machine did not have much clearance and it is a basic machine so not a lot of power. I think the needles would have powered through on a better quality sewing machine. These are a great value - I can sew over 200 masks before it shows any sign of dulling. When I was learning I lost a few when using a wider stitch and it just bent the needles - it didn’t break - so these are very strong needles!

We got these to use in our home sewing machine to make new slings for our set of patio sling chairs/rockers. These #20 needles were the exact right needle to use for sewing the Sailrite sling fabrice we chose for the chairs.

Good to have extras

This makes sewing sequins so easy. The needle can punch right through sequins.

The needle broke since this I have used a 16 needle and sewed right through 6-layers of heavy denim no need for a 20 needle it is also hard on the machine the feed gears and motor. I am not sewing this on a regular only to try once and I have no intention of sewing leather unless it is thin. I am using a Pfaff 1222e a fine machine. When a needle breaks it cut leave a bur and then your thread will tear. I deburred the needle plate and the hook with scotchbrite and it worked great.
