Industrial Suppliers for parts/needles
« on: July 06, 2017, 17:18:17 PM »
Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone knows a good source of Industrial needles (88x1)/parts and accessories?

So far I've found Hobkirkhttps://www.hobkirk.co.uk/

and Cathedral Sewing http://cathedralsewingmachines.co.uk/

Seem to be the best in the UK

Cute Textile https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/cutextilemc/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from= from the US look good.

I've also heard that Schmetz, and Groz-Beckert Lead the industrial needle market with Organ in close second place...

Thoughts and suggestions and recommendations are very welcome and appreciated.

Thanks,

Roger

Try bargainmachines2012 on ebay for Shmetz & intertrimmings0161 for Groz-Beckert also on ebay.  Prices are pretty good and delivery's really quick.

Thank you Surestitch,

I love intertrimmings trimmings, but bargain machines doesnt carry the right size needles... they dont seem rare just niche, but do have lots of handy other things.
