Product Information
Professional seamstresses and sewing hobbyists searching for a workhorse machine that can handle the toughest fabrics will find their answer in the dependable and well-built body of the Singer 111w155. This vintage industrial sewing machine can sew leather, suede, and canvas as well as automotive and upholstery fabrics without skipping any stitches. Whether you’re in the professional textile industry or enjoy home sewing projects, the 111w155 can get the job done with accuracy and dependability. This commercial-grade Singer features a compound feed with alternating presser feet, stitching regulation, vertical access hook, and a safety clutch. The heavy-duty motor can handle anything you toss under its metal presser feet. You’ll be able to stitch through marine vinyl, leather, RV awnings, backpack strap webbing, outdoor accessories, and hat making fabrics. You can also make repairs and alterations to jeans, canvas tents, and many other items you might want to repair.The compound feed system, also known as a triple feed system, is the most common type used in commercial-grade machines. The two alternating presser feet move the fabric by matching the motion of the needle bar, the inside presser foot, and the bottom feed dog system. The outside walking foot then lifts off of the fabric as it is being sewn. This process allows all three components to quickly and easily sew multiple layers or heavy fabrics. It is not necessary for the operator to manually raise the feet when trying to navigate through thick or slippery fabrics. Designed with a single needle and forward-only motion, this sewing machine can handle thread up to #138 and features a metal horizontally aligned bobbin. It will punch through heavy fabric and thick layers with a straight and secure seam. The stitch regulator automatically makes the appliance operate faster or slower depending upon the speed and thickness of the fabric moving through it. This allows you to achieve free-motion and even stitchery without having to use the pedal.Safety is always a key concern when deciding to buy any type of home or factory appliance. The safety clutch on this machine is a unique feature that beginners to the world of commercial-grade stitching will appreciate. If there is ever a problem, such as bunched-up fabric or tangled threads, the safety clutch will automatically engage. This action prevents the hook from being damaged due to too much tension and strain. It also prevents other damage to the appliance or harm to the operator.Singer sewing machines are designed to stand up to a wide variety of projects, including home decor, apparel, quilting, embroidery, and industrial work. This Singer 111w model is the go-to choice for hobbyists, industrial sewers, and antique collectors looking for a heavy-duty vintage machine. The antique status of this machine only adds to its value and attractive profile. Many models of this well-built Singer sewing machine are still in use today. Constructed of solid metal, this well-built appliance will also add a unique decorative touch to your home when not in use.Product Identifiers
