Description
- These bodkins, made of hardened steel and refined brass, are suitable for inserting elastic tapes and cords through a waistband, hood tunnelling, etc.
- If a tape is threaded through this eye and then inserted down the needle shaft halves, it gets caught and can then be pulled through the tunnel while it is securely anchored.
- The other bodkin, made of stainless steel, has a wide, flattened, and thus, thinner needle shaft with a long and round eye.
- The long eye is designed to take up tapes and thick yarns, the round one is suitable for finer yarns and o-rings.
- The needles’ burr-free, rounded tips cannot pierce through the material and therefore slide easily through any fabric loop or tube with the balanced spring stiffness and smooth surface make these needles professional tools.
