The 854 S SUK needle (needle system 854 S) has a medium ball point for working knit fabrics, without damaging the loops. It is used in Schiffli embroidery machines. Suitable machine classes are found, among others, at Futura (classes CE 5/ 75-F, CE 10/ 75-F, CE 10/108-F, CE 15/108-F), Saurer Sticksysteme (classes 110 to 111, 113 to 114, 115, 116) and Zangs (classes 110 TO 111, 113 TO 114, 115 - S, 116).
The available needle sizes are used, among others, 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. The ball point glides between the loops instead of piercing them, keeping the seam clean and undamaged.
