IMPORTANT – CHECK YOUR MACHINE'S NEEDLE SYSTEM BEFORE ORDERING

These SCHMETZ ELx705 Serger / Overlock Needles are specially designed for compatible sergers and overlock machines that require the ELx705 needle system. ELx705 is not compatible with every serger, so always check your machine's instruction manual before purchasing.

The ELx705 features a reinforced blade for the demands of high-speed serging. Unlike a standard home sewing machine needle, it has two grooves – one on the front and one on the back – which are needed to create specialty serger stitches.

Its slightly rounded point makes this needle suitable for use with a variety of woven and knit fabrics.

What Machines Use ELx705 Needles?

The ELx705 needle system is used by various serger, overlock and coverlock machines. However, compatibility is determined by the specific machine model, not simply by the brand of the machine.

Before ordering, check your machine's owner's manual and look for ELx705 in the recommended needle specifications. If your machine specifies ELx705, these needles are the correct needle system.

Do not use ELx705 needles in a regular home sewing machine unless the machine manufacturer specifically recommends this needle system.

Why Is ELx705 Different?

Serger and overlock machines operate at high speeds and require precise interaction between the needle and loopers. The SCHMETZ ELx705 features a reinforced blade and grooves on both the front and back to support proper stitch formation in compatible machines.

Size 80/12

This package contains five size 80/12 needles. Size 80/12 is a versatile choice for many lightweight to medium-weight woven and knit fabrics.

Compatibility Reminder

ELx705 is a needle system, not a universal serger needle. Different sergers – including different models made by the same manufacturer – may require different needle systems. Always follow the needle recommendation provided by your machine manufacturer.

Quantity: 1 = 1 pack of 5 needles.

Lucy C. ★★★★★

I've been using these 80/12 serger needles for a few weeks now, and the regular eye makes threading them onto my machine noticeably easier than other brands I've tried.

Matthew D. ★★★★★

These have a slightly rounded point that glides through knits without snagging, which made a huge difference in my stretch fabric projects. I usually break cheaper needles, but this pack of five has lasted me through several garments.

Emily ★★★★★

Switching to these 80/12 needles made a noticeable difference—my serger finally stops skipping stitches on lightweight knits. The slightly rounded point glides through the fabric without snagging, which saves me so much frustration.
