A needle mounting member for mounting a barbed felting needle in a hole in a needle carrier of a felting machine, the hole being of greater cross-sectional dimensions than the needle to be mounted therein. The needle mounting member is formed from resilient metal strip shaped to afford firstly means for gripping the needle and secondly means for gripping the hole internally. This means for gripping the needle comprises a shaped seating including two axially spaced seating parts formed at opposite ends of a rigid part, and a resiliently displaceable tongue which is disposed axially between the seating parts. The outer gripping means comprises an outwardly directed seating afforded by said rigid part and a further tongue which is resiliently displaceable relative thereto and is adapted to press outwardly against the side wall of the hole. The two resiliently displaceable tongues are effectively isolated from one another by the common rigid part and thus act independently.
