OldNews Report post Posted July 15, 2017 I picked up a 111W155 at an auction sale a few weeks ago. It came with a bunch of 69 thread and needles sized for that thread. I need to switch over to 138 thread, and I am struggling to find needles. I called or emailed my normal suppliers, (Montana Leather, Weaver, Bowden, etc.) and every one of them sent me to Singer Corp. When I call them they say that they have nothing to do with industrial machines. So, could one of you folks please share a link where you get needles and accessories for your 155 please? I appreciate the help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uwe Report post Posted July 15, 2017 According to the Singer 111W155 manual (Singer 111W155 Manual print.pdf), these machines use System 135x17 needles (for fabric, also called DPx17 or SY3355) or System 135x16 needles (for leather, also called DPx16 or SY3378). If you type "135x17 needles" into the Ebay search field, you get 1,700 results. Any of our trusty banner vendors have these in stock, I'm pretty sure. You just have to ask for the right thing.
