Technical Data

Product Overview

Tri Star Felting Needles are premium nonwoven needling consumables engineered for high-performance needle punching machines and needle looms in continuous nonwoven production lines. Featuring an equilateral triangular working section with three curved extruding edges and barbs evenly distributed on each edge, this innovative design significantly reduces stress concentration at the barb area—the most common point of needle breakage. Manufactured from high-carbon steel, these needles deliver consistent fiber entanglement, extended service life, and reduced machine downtime, making them ideal for producing geotextiles, automotive interiors, industrial felts, and specialty nonwoven fabrics.
