Machine Type: Sewing Machine

The DC*1 industrial sewing machine needle is the established standard for cylinder-bed, post-bed, and feed-off-the-arm sewing machines, cross-referenced under system designations 29-BJ and TV×7. Its round industrial shank is machined to the DC system tolerance and fits the needle clamp of all major cylinder-bed platforms without modification, making it the preferred needle series for production lines that run sleeve-setting, trouser-inseam, cuff-attachment, and tubular-component operations at scale.

DC*1 needles are fully compatible with the leading cylinder-bed and post-bed machine brands including Juki, Brother, Pegasus, and Union Special, as well as the broader range of feed-off-the-arm machines used in mainstream garment manufacturing. Rated for continuous industrial operation at 3,000–5,000 RPM, the precision-ground long front groove and short rear scarf geometry support consistent lockstitch loop formation and thread flow at speed, reducing thread-break frequency and maintaining seam quality across long production runs on medium-weight to heavy-weight materials.

Each needle is produced from high-carbon steel and finished with a nickel or chrome surface treatment that resists corrosion and reduces surface friction against synthetic thread blends. The size 18# (110/18) — the featured trade SKU — is optimised for medium-heavy to heavy fabrics including 12 oz denim, canvas, bonded interlining, and multi-layer workwear constructions where a finer needle would deflect or cause skipped stitches under the cylinder-bed feeding action. The full DC*1 range spans eight sizes from 9# (65/9) through 21# (130/21), covering the complete spectrum from lightweight shirting to heavy industrial canvas within a single needle system.

The standard trade unit is a 10pcs/bag polybag, sized for counter display, tool-kit inclusion, and machine-side maintenance stock. Factory buyers can source 100pcs/box bulk packs or 1,000pcs/carton production cartons for uninterrupted line supply. OEM custom packaging — including branded card inserts, mixed-size assortment bags, and private-label master carton printing — is available for haberdashery distributors and sewing equipment resellers building their own product range.
