    Default Superior Beka Needles

    I found these cleaning out cabinet. I probably picked them up at a yard sale with other things. Can anyone tell me what these are used for? I tried to google them but got nothing for the size I have. I think they may be for a serger but not sure. They are 18/110 in size with some other numbers I don't know what they mean. 62x43, 149x3, DVx43. They are a box of 100.

    No idea but can you measure them against your machine needles to see if they would work?

    Google Beka sewing machine needles- many sites show up including one that gives a comparison to other needles.

    Thanks for the tip - I checked it out. Very similar needles but not the size I have. But I have the information from the link you sent me and I'll contact the person to see if they want to buy mine.

    Thanks - I did, these are very long. I think they are more for industrial sewing machines the more I think of it.
