The 34 KK needle has a normal round point for working woven and knit fabrics. The KK version has a short shank. It is used in industrial lockstitch and general-purpose sewing machines for everyday garment and textile manufacturing. Suitable machine classes are found, among others, at Pfaff (classes 3307-1/02, 3307-1/13, 3307-3/01, 3307-4/01), Singer (classes 110-W100, 15-31, 15-35, 16-133) and Dürkopp Adler (classes 697-15155, 697-24155, 067 - 1000, 068 - 1000).
The available needle sizes are used, among others, for medium-weight standard woven and knit fabrics for everyday garment production. As sewing thread, a matching thickness is usually recommended depending on the needle size chosen, e.g. from Amann Serafil (polyester) or Rasant (polyester/cotton).
