How do these 100/16 needles compare to the heavy duty 110/18 needles?

I'm only able to explain what's written on the packages: Style 2026, blue shank (heavy duty for denim fabrics) Purple shoulder size 100/16 C denim, leather, & other heavy duty fabrics Style 2020, silver shank Silver shoulder size 110/18 C denim, duck, drapery, ticking, woolens, & corduroy From the above, it does seem that 100/16 is a stronger & thicker needle.

I would be hesitant to use them around needles. That would be a manufacturer questions, but I would be really surprised if they said yes.

I would suggest the max 18, 16 to me feels really more accurate, you compensate a bit more with the heaviver dart like a 18g, but really, its all depends on your feel of the dart and what you like. To me the 16 feels good

Good Question! These are one of the best universal needles on the market. I have a small sewing machine shop and you would be surprised how many people use the wrong needle. This one should do a good job for us. We use them for our Brothers, Necchi, and Toyota Machines on the floor.

Your owners manual, page 39, gives specs on the recommended needles. Embroidery they recommend size 75/11. You can use any brand, as long as they are specifically for home sewing machines (back of the post is flat) These needles are correct, but I did not like the quality, they broke frequently and had rough spots that caused the thread to fray and fabric to pucker and run. Also their ad is misleading, the price is for only 10 needles, even though the picture shows a 500 pack The Organ brand in the gray pack are a much better quality: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0042B9K2C/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Hi, I bought them to try. Since I use Singer and Schmetz needles as well in my Janome, I would think they are standard

I really don't believe it makes a difference. The size is more for how much pain you can tolerate. If you are a beginner, I would start with the .5 mm. The size of the needles penetrate the skin at the same depth, the higher the size the needle gets a little larger. It will not puncture below the top layer of the skin. It is intended to open up the skin for medications or skin care products to work more effectively. Hope this helps.

Heavy-duty tool is made to last. Nothing compare to cheaper 18V tools, in terms of battery life, longevity and the durability.

My wire stripper handles it nicely at either the 18 or 20 gauge setting, but the wire is definitely heavier than the stuff that came with my dog fence. Also, the insulation is heavier and tougher.

The reason is greater accuracy. You may get (very small) differences in measurements by not using the weights correctly. For items under 100 you should use the 100 calibration weight; over 100 use the 200.

The 80 will have more strands than the 50 so the 80 will be thicker and stronger. The number refers to the poundage of the bow so the string can withstand well over 80 pounds.

There doesn't appear to be much difference besides the finish, I would by the cheaper of the two. I have used these bases for VHF-low, VHF and UHF Ham Radio with no complaints!

Sewing machine needles are pretty much universal. This one is good for heavier fabrics - not just denim.

I only know I bought my needle through Amazon. However, I do not use 78 rpm and don't have a separate needle for them.

The 14 are thicker needles, suitable for denim. They can leave wholes in lighter weight cottons. Denim/jeans thread is thicker too. I use 11 for most fabrics and 8-9 for lighter or more fragile fabric (silk, linings etc.) Use 11 for wools, cottons.

Mr. Scholten,Since you represent the mfr, may I suggest you work with Amazon to present this information on the listings for each product. I thought that the 110 might be a replacement for the 100. Your comment explained the single difference.
