Product Overview
Circular Knitting Needles (Item 16) is listed in our circular knitting needles group for circular knitting machine maintenance. Latch needles for single jersey and double jersey circular knitting machines, ordered by machine model and gauge.
What This Part Does
On a circular machine the needles sit in the cylinder and dial tricks and are driven by the cam track through their butts. Butt height and position have to match the cam of the machine model, which is why the same gauge can need different needles on different machines.
Key Benefits

- Consistent butt geometry within a delivery
- Suitable for cylinder and dial positions on double jersey machines
Application Scenarios
- Single jersey machines for jersey, pique, fleece and terry
- Rib and interlock machines
- Jacquard machines using selection
Who It Is For
- Fabric knitting mills
- Machine rebuilders
- Distributors serving circular knitters
Problems It Solves
- Needle breakage after fitting a needle with the wrong butt height
- Holes and dropped stitches from bent latches
- Uneven fabric after a partial needle change

Use Guide
- Confirm the reference against the old part and the machine plate before ordering a full machine set.
- Order one complete set per machine where the part is fitted in multiples, so wear is even across the fabric.
- Clean the mounting position before fitting. Fly and old oil are the most common cause of a new part not seating.
- Check the machine on a short run and measure the fabric before returning it to full production.
- Record the reference against the machine so the next reorder does not have to be identified again.
Circular Knitting Needles Questions
Are cylinder and dial needles the same?
No. They differ in length and often in butt form. Tell us which position you are ordering for.
Does gauge alone identify the needle?
No. Two machines of the same gauge from different builders can take different needles, because the cam track and therefore the butt height differ.
