Smith & Son premium sail needles offer a choice of individual gauges for hand-sewing sailcloth and suitable marine repair work. This range is intended for buyers who want a repeatable needle size rather than a mixed assortment. Each listed product identifies its own gauge and is supplied as a packet of 25 needles of that selected size, making the exact product code important when replenishing a sail repair kit or workshop supply. The premium needles are made in the United Kingdom from high-carbon, heat-treated steel. Their construction includes a sharp, reduced triangular point and a long eye. The point and eye are useful details to compare when choosing a needle for the material and thread you plan to use. Gauge, needle length where specified, thread fit and the thickness of the work should be considered together; a larger-looking needle is not automatically the right choice for every seam. The available premium range runs from gauge 10 to gauge 18. Read the individual listing for the selected size and any stated length. Do not substitute a neighbouring gauge solely because the product photographs look similar. Likewise, a family or size-comparison image illustrates the range rather than promising that several different gauges are included in one packet. The supplied quantity is 25 needles in the specified gauge, not an assorted selection. Useful selection points: \- Choose the gauge for the particular repair and sewing method. \- Check that the thread passes through the eye without being damaged. \- Confirm the supplied packet quantity before ordering several sizes. \- Keep needles organised by gauge so replacement stock is easy to identify. \- Inspect needles for bent shafts, damaged points or rough eyes before use. A suitable sewing palm, thread and other repair supplies can be selected separately where the task calls for them; they are not included with these needle packets. Store needles securely and protect their points when carrying them aboard. For a structural sail repair, choose the repair method and materials appropriate to the sail rather than relying on needle size alone. ### Filters Brand all Price (AUD) all Sort by None [
