Leather DH needles with a cutting point DH (= half triangular point) for easier penetration; for straight seams on leather, hard synthetic leather or similar materials. Not suitable for woven or knitted fabrics. The half triangular point (= DH) cuts easily through leather and similar materials thanks to its cutting action. It also creates a straight stitching line, which makes the seam appear particularly accurate and straight. Choose a longer stitch length to stop the stitches being torn out. When locking the seam, make sure that the sewing thread is not severed. The Leather DH needle can only be used on soft synthetic leather to a limited extent: Try the Microtex needle first in this case as the material may be damaged and holes could tear more easily.

With its half triangular point, it is used for straight seams, while the established Leather LL needle is used for decorative seams. Please note: Leather needles are NOT suitable for textiles due to their cutting effect, as woven or knitted fabrics can be severed during sewing.
