The 110 S TOP STR needle (needle system 110 S TOP) has a Schiffli special point for working woven and knit fabrics. It is used in Schiffli embroidery machines. Suitable machine classes are found, among others, at Lässer (classes L 110, L 120, PRIME, TWIN), Saurer Embroidery Systems (classes 2040, 4040, EPOCA, S) and Saurer (classes 2040 - PENTAMAT, 4040 - HP-E, EPOCA - II, EPOCA - III).
Thinner needle sizes are used, among others, for fine embroidery on light fabrics, and the thicker versions for standard embroidery on medium-weight fabrics. As embroidery thread, a size No. 60 to No. 30 thread matching the needle size chosen is usually recommended, e.g. Amann Isacord.
