Special sewing machines, such as overlock and coverstitch machines, often require special needle systems, such as ELx705 or SY 2022. These unique needles are tailored to the specific model’s requirements and are not compatible with other household or overlock needles.

Just like most household needles, the SCHMETZ ELx705 overlock needle has a flat shank, which ensures easy positioning in the sewing machine.

The main feature that distinguishes the ELx705 overlock needle from other household needles is the second thread groove. It helps create chain stitches, such as overlock or seam stitches, and ensures that only a small thread tension is needed to form the stitches.

Just like the universal needle, the ELx705 needle has a slightly rounded tip, what makes it universally applicable and suitable for various materials.
