All-metal construction produces overlock finishes that prevent fraying. Compatibility covers most low-shank snap-on domestic machines including Brother, Janome, Singer and more.
Fray-free, professional edges - thanks to overlock wrapping action
Overlock wrapping action guides thread around raw edges while varying zigzag and overlock stitch widths create the overcast. The combination of stitch width and thread wrap forms a secure edge finish.
Prevents fabric from fraying and leaves hems and seam allowances ready for wear or sale. The result is a tidy, durable edge without extra finishing steps.
Faster, neater hemming - with fold-and-grab sole shaping
Sole shaping folds the hem and holds fabric under the needle, allowing simultaneous overcasting and seam stitching. The shaped profile keeps fabric aligned for consistent stitch placement.
Sewing becomes quicker with fewer adjustments, producing even hems on lightweight to medium-weight fabrics. Consistent feeds reduce puckering and speed up small production runs.
Durable, long-lasting performance - with all-metal, anti-rust construction
All-metal construction resists wear and corrosion, providing a stable platform under needle pressure. Metal components maintain alignment during repeated use better than many plastic alternatives.
Reliability reduces the need for frequent replacements and keeps stitch quality steady over time. Robust build suits regular home use and small-scale making.
