When to choose it
Choose this assembly for a fine fabric and thread setup when you want the rows close together and the machine manual permits twin sewing. The pack specifies the narrow spacing independently of size 70.
Compare it with the 2.0 mm twin if you want more space between the rows. That option also changes nominal size, so compare the intended thread and fabric along with the visual spacing.
