7X4DIA | DYx3D | 794DIA | #180 Leather diamond point needle (pack of 10)
The 7x4DIA (also known as 794DIA) is an extra-heavy-duty industrial needle system featuring a diamond point (DIA) specifically designed for sewing hard, dry, or dense leathers.
Point Characteristics: The Diamond (DIA) Point
The DIA point is a four-edged cutting point that pierces a quadruple-edge hole into the material.
Performance: The blade cuts through leather fibers rather than pushing them aside, significantly reducing the force needed for penetration.
Stitch Appearance: It produces a very straight seam where the thread sits slightly elevated and the stitch holes remain clearly visible, which is often a signature look for luxury leather goods.
Ideal Materials: Best for heavy and unyielding materials like real leather, suede, heavy vinyl, and even cardboard.
