I was given a pfaff 130. Does anyone know the type of needle it takes? And What is the largest and best needle type for very heavy sails that sailrite sells for it? Thanks |

The needle will have a flat side on the upper shaft. The Pfaff 130 takes a system 130 needle. Here is a link: http://www.sailrite.com/Notions/Sewing-Needles/Sewing-Machine-Needles/Needle-System/System-130/type/Products?order=custitem_popularity The #20 size is the heaviest needle. It is #20216. But I would also get some #18 needles, #20214. ------------- Best Regards, Matt Grant Sailrite |

| I did not want to hyjack this thread but was wondering anyone has experience with what needles work best with Profilen thread in a Pfaff 130. Profilen seems to work best with #16 Schmetz serv7 or Groz-Beckert #16 R on my REX 607Z (LSZ-1 clone POS) which uses 135/17 size but have not seen much in the way of speciality needles for home machines type 130/705. The Pfaff 130 profilen stiches are reasonable with generic Organ 15x1 LL(leather) #16 that came with the machine after adjusting the tension but suspect there are much better choices out there. Any suggestions? |

Hi Caroline01, can you check that post that is not showing up again, or email me directly at matt@sailrite.com? Hi Dennis, I have not used Profilen on a Pfaff 130 but my guess is that a #16 system 130 needle with a sharp point is the best. ------------- Best Regards, Matt Grant Sailrite |
