I bought 100 of the Organ HAx130EB 80/12 from Allbrands. They stay sharp forever in my Brother Innovis 4000D.

Years ago, I made this comment in some notes:
Using - Organ HAx130EB 80/12
Size 11 Organ HAx130EBBR or HAX130EB Needles recommended for all embroidery because the smaller needle is better for dense embroidery. Size 14 only for thicker, dense fabrics
I think Carol who was working at Allbrands at that time, told me this. I have only used the size 80/12's and have been more than happy with them. They last forever and do some great piecing, along with embroidery!
If the place you bought your machine from also sells the big 6 & 10 needle machines, which is what these needles were designed for, they should be able to give you the best needle for you. I would make sure it is titanium.
