Presser foot with metal ribbed roller sewing leather and heavy fabrics | Vykroyka.com.ua

When sewing leather, vinyl, rubberized fabrics, neoprene, and canvas, a standard metal foot will “stick” to the surface of the material, causing a lot of drag on the top layer and a strong shrinkage. The presser foot with a rotating metal ribbed roller replaces sliding friction with rolling friction, ensuring uniform advance and even stitch pitch.

1. Rolling mechanism

The roller is located on the side or in the center of the needle and rotates freely in synchronization with the movement of the lower rack, pulling even the stickiest material without braking.

2. No scratches

The edges of the roller notches are micro-rounded, so with the correct presser foot pressure, the roller does not leave mechanical marks on the front surface of leather or nubuck.

3. Excellent visibility of the injection area

Thanks to the narrow roller body, the craftsman can clearly see the marking line and the needle entry point when performing decorative finishing stitches.

Advice to the master
When sewing delicate patent leather, place a strip of tracing paper under the roller or use a Teflon roller. And you can download patterns for leather bags, jackets and accessories in the catalog ready-made patterns.
