dikman Report post Posted October 2, 2018 My Seiko uses 135 needles. Is there a needle type that is the same shank diameter but about 3-4mm longer? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
R8R Report post Posted October 2, 2018 I believe 190R needles are a bit longer, same shank. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dikman Report post Posted October 3, 2018 Thanks mate, you're right and I'm an idiot! Not long ago I bought some 190R's for one of my other machines and forgot about it! They are indeed the length I want, but I'm facing the same issue I had before - I can only get them in 110/140 size and garment point. I'll have to try and source them from overseas to get leather point. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
