When to choose it

Choose this assembly only if the machine manual permits 6.0 mm twin spacing and the fabric and thread suit size 100. The fixed gap gives you a specific width to compare on a sample.

If the setup has less clearance or you want narrower rows, compare a narrower Universal Twin. Width changes the spacing of the rows and the space required at the plate and foot.

Questions about this product

Does the 6.0 number describe the needle size?

It describes the distance between the points. Size 100 describes the nominal needle size.

Is it narrower than the 8.0 mm model?

Yes. Both cited models use size 100, with two different widths.

Should I choose it based on a wide stitch setting alone?

Follow the permitted twin configuration and check the foot and plate clearance for this width.
