Hi
I need some help on this question.

Are these the same needles. Needles for the home sewing machine that will accomodate the upholstery work on a home machine.

Made in Japan

Are these the same type needle as the following, other than the price?
Organ HAx1/15X1 (=130R) Standard / Regular Flat-Shank Needles for Home Sewing Machines Box of 100 Specify Size
Buy in bulk and save!
Boxes of 100 best quality needles from Japan will last through hundreds of sewing projects!
Interchangeable with Schmetz 130/705H and $10 less!
Same as Brother part number 129583-001, except more needles
Look for Organ specialty needles for MACHINE EMBROIDERY and SERGERS in search box above.

Your best bet is to contact the customer service department of your sewing machine manufacturer for recommended compatible needles.
