It should easily work for that stuff. I'm not familiar with that model. I thought I saw that they still have a manual for it on juki website. Otherwise I'm sure there might be something on YouTube about that model. Doing webbing might be a little much for it but give it a go.
I have the manual, it says DLN-5410N, I do not know if that is different model from the one without the N. It came with a huge table thats 3'x5'. Two boxes of webbing and various buckles. It has the large spool holder and a bunch of other stuff. I am just learning to sew at the ripe age of 52, and its kind of intimidating.
A lot of good stuff out there on YouTube (Jerry Grose member here, jellyfish, Jason of all trades, professor pincushion, and Sailrite are a few I've watched). I buy my thread and needles from threadexchange.com. I would think size 69 thread would work fine through that machine. I can't find maximum needle size for the machine though.

Thank you both for the replies. There is so much information out there.N is standard weight and I believe NH is heavyweight. I believe one can convert from one to the other with the correct parts. Yours is most likely the N version.
The 5410 has an oil pump that lubricates during sewing. If you sew slow you might want to think about running full speed without thread or needle and presser feet lifted for a few minutes at the beginning of every sewing session to get the oil through the machine.
For myog creations, it is either bonded polyester or bonded nylon. I get mine at wawak.com (Amann brand: serabond and strongbond). V69/T70 (two ways of identifying same thread) would be where I would start. Guys with triple/unison feed machines can use up to T135 thread.
Most guys prefer bonded nylon. I tend towards bonded polyester.

Sewing webbing loops
How to Sew Webbing Loops
DetailsSewn loops on webbing are used in a variety of load bearing applications. Sailboat harness tethers use sewn loops so you can clip to your boat’s jackline to keep you safely onboard. They’re used in towing applications. They’re found on safety harnesses and climbing gear, lifting harnesses...
You would want to ensure the machine is properly setup/timed. You can take to a sewing machine mechanic or find a service manual and do it yourself.
Enjoy!
