Description
These Overlock needles are great for safety stitches and cover stitches. Due to their superior quality and durability, these needles offer consistent sewing and prevent cloth bunching or skipped stitches.
Here’s how these needles are different from home sewing needles (130/705 H):
- Overlock needles have a groove on the front and back sides of the blade to reduce skipped stitches. The second long groove is necessary to create chain stitches like overlock or coverlock stitches.
- ELx705 has increased strength due to a reinforced blade leading to less needle breakage and straighter stitches.
- ELx705 has a slightly rounded point for universal use.
Regular point available in size 65/9

Many new overlockers use home sewing needle system 130/705 H (flat shank with a scarf). SCHMETZ Stretch, Jersey, Topstitch and Universal are popular needle choices. Some older overlockers use needle systems BLX1 and DCX1.
