When to choose it

Choose this twin when you want closely spaced rows and the machine supports the twin setup. The nominal size is 80, so compare that against the fabric and thread independently of the narrow spacing.

Compare it with the 2.5 mm Universal Twin at the same size if you are choosing the visible distance between rows. Test both through the same seam layers with the appropriate foot and plate.
