These high quality needles feature a flat shank for ease of positioning in the machine and a second thread groove which supports the formation of chain stitches whilst ensuring that only low thread tension is required to form the stitch.

With a slightly rounded needle point, this option is universally applicable and suitable for handling a wide variety of materials.

What Schmetz say:-

Special sewing machines like overlock and coverlock machines often require special needle systems such as the ELx705 CF. These unique needles are adapted to the requirements of the respective model and are not interchangeable with other household or overlock needles.

The CF in the needle designation stands for Chrome Finish. This means that the needles are coated with chrome. This coating is the industry standard and ensures that the needles can withstand the higher sewing speeds of overlock and coverlock machines for a long time.

Overlock Needles ELx705 CF are marked with a black color marking to distinguish them from other household needles. The second color marking lower down the needle indicates the needle size.

Please note that your machine will only work correctly and deliver optimum results when you use the appropriate needle system. Information on which needles can be used in your machine can be found in the operating instructions or, in individual cases, directly on the machine itself.
