ASTM A269 SS304 / 304L / 316L Stainless Steel High Precision Needle Medical Capillary Tube
Stainless steel capillary tube needle tube is a type of tubing generally made from high-quality stainless steel, which is commonly used in the textile industry to create sewing needles for various fabrics. The needle tube has a very thin and sharp tip, which makes it ideal for use in applications where precision is critical, such as embroidery, quilting, and other sewing applications. The stainless steel material is strong, durable, and resistant to corrosion, making it a reliable material for sewing.
