Organ Microtex Needles have a slim, sharp tip, which is suitable for sewing with fine materials such as batiste, chiffon, organdy, lace, linen, and similar microfibers. The slender, sharp tip reduces puncture resistance as the needle penetrates the material, preventing needle and thread breakage. Highly compacted material is thus protected against wrinkling. Favorite Uses: Great for microfabrics, silk and lace, and threads from lighter 60 wt. and 40 wt. rayon and poly, and regular sewing threads. Needle Point: Slim Sharp Point Needle Style: Machine Needle Type: Microtex
