A little sturdier than the standard: the Schmetz Universal 5 needles 90-14 measure NM 90, or US 14 in American notation. This pack of five (item number 130-705-05-090) is aimed at medium to heavy fabric, where a thinner shaft may bend.

Uses
Heavier denim, canvas-like cotton, unlined jackets or a piped cushion are sewn without hesitation. The eye also leaves a little more room for slightly thicker thread, and a thicker needle is steadier on cross seams and hems. If your fabric turns out fairly soft and thin, step back to the 80-12. When several layers meet, the 100-16 takes you further. Prefer a special type? Have a look at our sewing machine needles.
