Madeira article number
Anti-Glue means reduced residue—not completely non-stick. Adhesive may still collect during extended use. Check the needle regularly and clean the needle and machine only as directed in their manufacturers’ instructions.
Help keep glue away from the needle groove and eye
As a needle repeatedly passes through an adhesive layer, glue can transfer to the blade and interfere with the thread path. Madeira’s special Anti-Glue composition visibly reduces this adhesion in the groove and eye area, helping limit thread breaks caused by a glue-loaded needle.
Cleaner thread path
Less residue around the groove and eye gives the embroidery thread a clearer route through the needle.
Large eye and light ball point
The embroidery geometry supports smooth thread passage and versatile stitching on suitable fabrics and stabilisers.
A precise claim: the Anti-Glue design reduces glue adhesion and related thread breakage. It does not eliminate every residue, skipped stitch or thread break from every setup.
Choose 9456 when the needle must pass through adhesive
These needles are intended for materials treated with spray adhesive and for adhesive backings. Match the complete fabric, stabiliser, thread and design combination in a test sample before beginning the final project.
A useful choice when sticky stabiliser holds fabric or a difficult-to-hoop item in place for embroidery.
Helps when a project layer is lightly fixed with a compatible embroidery or sewing spray adhesive.
Suitable to test when the stitch path crosses an adhesive-backed appliqué or other bonded layer.
Size guide: all five needles are NM 75 / size 11. This is a relatively fine embroidery size, so test the combined fabric and backing thickness rather than assuming it suits every dense or heavy assembly.
Use the specialist needle as part of a clean setup
Confirm machine fit
Check the machine manual and the current needle system before installing the 75/11 needle.
Control the adhesive
Apply only the amount directed by the adhesive maker and keep unnecessary spray away from the stitch path.
Test every layer
Sample the actual fabric, backing, thread, stitch density and adhesive before sewing the finished item.
Inspect and replace
Pause if thread breaks or residue increases; replace a bent, blunt, damaged or heavily contaminated needle.

Madeira 9456 Anti-Glue needle FAQs
How many needles are in the Madeira 9456 pack?
There are five needles. Every needle in the card is size 75/11.
What does Anti-Glue mean?
Madeira describes a special needle composition that reduces the adhesion of glue residue, especially around the needle groove and eye.
Are the needles completely non-stick?
No. They are designed to reduce glue adhesion, not guarantee a residue-free needle in every project. Inspect the needle during extended or adhesive-heavy stitching.
Which materials are they designed for?
Madeira recommends them for materials treated with adhesive sprays and for adhesive backings, including suitable sticky stabiliser setups.
Will they stop every thread break?
No needle can promise that. Madeira specifically links the design to reducing thread breaks caused by glue residue; tension, threading, thread quality, design density and needle damage can still cause problems.
Will Madeira 9456 fit every household machine?
It is sold for compatible household sewing and embroidery machines, but you should still check the exact machine manual for its required needle system and size range.
How should I clean adhesive from the needle?
Stop and switch off the machine first. Follow the machine, needle and adhesive manufacturers’ cleaning guidance, and do not apply an unapproved solvent near the machine.
When should I replace an Anti-Glue needle?
Replace it when it is bent, blunt, damaged, heavily contaminated or causing stitch-quality problems. A fresh needle is a sensible starting point for an important adhesive-backed project.
Keep a five-pack ready for adhesive-backed embroidery
Madeira 9456 gives you five size 75/11 embroidery needles engineered to reduce glue residue and the thread breaks that sticky build-up can cause.
