Members Wozzer Posted October 28, 2022 Members Report Posted October 28, 2022 I have a Durkopp that I was told is a 17-2-2. According to the instructions manual it may well be a 17-5 or 17-6. Regardless of which model it is, i need needles for leather. I have been told a 17-2-2 has 56mm needles, but can find no such needle length. Any help would be appreciated. Quote

Members Constabulary Posted November 10, 2022 Members Report Posted November 10, 2022 usually the Class 17 + 18 take System 88 needles and some take 332 LONG needles. 332 LONG has a slightly lager shank diameter than the 332 IIRC Quote
