Description
The Reliable 7220SB is a direct-drive industrial blind stitch machine designed for clean, nearly invisible hems across lightweight microfiber fabrics through medium-weight woolens. Its plunger-drop system, skip-stitch control, and adjustable stitch penetration give alteration rooms and apparel workrooms the control needed to finish hems without telegraphing stitches to the face of the fabric.
Who It’s For
- Alteration shops and dry cleaners producing blind hems every day
- Apparel makers working with fine silks, microfibers, suiting, and medium-weight woolens
- Production environments that need a dedicated blind stitch workstation with quieter direct-drive control
Why It Stands Out
- Plunger-drop system suited to delicate, modern fabrics
- Skip-stitch control and adjustable stitch penetration
- Integrated direct-drive motor for responsive, quieter operation
- Semi-automatic lubrication and included UberLight Flex task light
- Delivered as a complete, assembled, tested, and sewn-off workstation
