Members Gregg From Keystone Sewing Posted November 13, 2020 Members Report Posted November 13, 2020 Actually, a titanium nitrate needle coating over chromium plated needle is used to help keep the needle point sharper for longer. A Needle with with a non-stick coating of NIT (Nickel-Phosphor-PTFE) for example from Schmetz is a Blukold type. This reduces needle heat, and more importantly helps keep the needle clean, thus helping the needle run cooler than normal chrome or titanium.

I'm not terribly good at Google and I can't seem to find anything like this in 135X16. Does anyone make that? Thanks, Arturo Quote
Members JollyDodgerCanvas Posted July 24, 2021 Members Report Posted July 24, 2021 Schmets website says they no longer make the needle mentioned above, non stick. But I found this... https://www.allbrands.com/products/15553-organ-dpx17-135x17-cs-cool-sew-ptfe-coated-non-sti It's a PTFE coated needle by Organ. (Teflon) should help with sticky assemblies. Quote
