Delta U:
Pressed Blade Process
HIGH BENDING STIFFNESS, Singer sewing machine needles are
manufactured by exclusive flow pressing technique - DELTA U - that
results in incomparable bending stiffness needles to avoid needle
breakage and skipped stitches.
MR SINGER NEEDLES
MR SINGER NEEDLES is a designation registered by Singer Company
and was introduced as regular range made in Brazil.
The shape of clearance above eye (CAE) - Scarf - is longer and deeper
in comparison to conventional needles. The needle groove is
continued at full depth all the way to the eye protecting the thread
from pinching thus permitting a better loop formation. The CAE is
formed without reduction section (crank).
ADVANTAGES
• Same needle cross section in both the blade and CAE area, increase
buckling strength.
• Longer and deeper CAE, creates more free space for the hook point to
pick up the thread loop.
• Deep thread groove is continued through to the eye area offering
better thread protection and improving thread handling.
• Incomparable performance than conventional needles in critical
sewing such as heavy material.
