Product Information
Full details
The NAXP Fine Fabric Needles (MK2) are essential tools for retailers, crafters, and garment professionals who require secure labeling without compromising the integrity of delicate materials. These precision-engineered needles are designed to work seamlessly with standard tagging guns, offering a consistent and reliable way to attach price tags or inventory labels to silk, satin, or fine knits. While they are masterfully crafted for delicate fabrics, users should note that they are specifically sized for fine-point tagging and may not be compatible with heavy-duty or industrial-thickness fasteners.

FAQs
Are these needles compatible with all tagging guns?
These are designed for all standard-model tagging guns. They are not compatible with 'heavy-duty' or 'extra-fine' specific industrial guns.
Can I use these on denim?
While they will physically pierce denim, they are optimized for fine fabrics. For heavy-duty materials, a standard-gauge needle is recommended to prevent needle breakage.
How often should I replace the needle?
Replace the needle as soon as you notice resistance while piercing fabric or if the tip becomes dull or bent.
Does the pack come with fasteners?
No, this product is a 5-pack of replacement needles only.
How do I store the extra needles?
Keep them in the original packaging in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture-related corrosion or accidental bending.
Troubleshooting
Needle is snagging fabric
Check the needle tip for microscopic burs or damage. Replace the needle if the tip is not perfectly smooth.
Fasteners are jamming inside the needle
Ensure you are using the correct size of fine fabric fasteners. Clear any remnants of old plastic from the feed channel.
Needle won't lock into the tagging gun
Verify that the needle is fully inserted into the channel and that the lock lever is completely closed.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, first ensure the tagging gun is completely empty of any existing fastener remnants. Release the needle locking lever, slide the old needle out, and insert the new MK2 needle with the slot facing the correct orientation as indicated by your tagging gun's manual. Close the lock firmly until you hear a click. For care, keep the needle clean of fabric dust or adhesives using a soft, dry cloth. Never attempt to straighten a bent needle, as the internal alignment will be compromised; instead, replace it immediately to prevent damaging your inventory.
