Blind Stitch Hemmer - Texi Semi-Industrial

This portable blind hemmer made by Texi is a curved-needle semi-industrial model, yet it is portable in a compact package, which includes skip stitch and adjustable depth to cope with most fabric types. It can create a stitch hidden on the garment when viewed from the front side.

Manufactured for the professional sewer wanting to sew blind hems faster, in fact much faster, at an amazing 1200 stitches-per-minute with a maximum stitch length of 7mm.

The robust blind hemming machine and weighs in at 11Kg so will not move around while stitching larger items, like curtains, thanks to the included table clamp. The Texi has a metal body and is made to last many years and to give high quality stitching reliably, helped by the industrial style curved needles.

The heavy-duty hemmer has a cast iron body with powerful 100 watt built-in motor, knee lifter and foot speed control. It is suitable for hemming/sewing all types of light to medium-weight materials including synthetics, knits and wools.

Unlike a regular sewing machine, the blind hemmers knee lift lowers the sleeve arm to allow the fabric to be placed under the feed dog.

The curved needle penetration though the fabric can be adjusted by the needle depth dial on the front. You would turn the dial to lower number for lightweight materials and adjust as required so the stitches on the front side of the material will nearly become invisible.

Option to use regular sewing thread to match your fabric colour, or use nylon transparent thread. The vertical thread pin can hold larger, 5000m or small 100m reels.

The swing-out sewing table gives access to the slender sleeve arm. At about the same size as an overlocker, the hemmer has a small footprint and would take up about 1 square foot of sewing table space.

The actual stitching and needle area is set forward, so is easy to access and cope with large projects.

A clear perspex swing up/down guard covers the needle and looper, and can be used when stitching at any speed, to protect against broken needles.
