Description
277112 Standard 4-Thread Overlock Presser Foot
The 277112 Standard 4-Thread Overlock Presser Foot is a precision-engineered replacement foot designed for compatible 4-thread industrial overlock (serger) sewing machines using the Pegasus-style framework. Built from durable industrial-grade steel, it provides smooth fabric feeding, balanced pressure, and reliable stitch formation for high-speed garment production.
This presser foot features an integrated tape and elastic guide that helps feed shoulder tape, stay tape, or narrow elastic accurately beneath the needles. It is an excellent choice for garment factories, tailoring workshops, sportswear manufacturers, and textile production units that require consistent overlock seams on knit and woven fabrics.
Please verify the shape and measurements of your existing presser foot before purchasing.
Why Choose the 277112 Overlock Presser Foot?
Designed for continuous industrial use, the 277112 presser foot delivers stable fabric control while maintaining clean and even overlock stitches. The integrated guide minimizes tape twisting during sewing, improving productivity and seam consistency.
Its precision-machined underside allows bulky seam intersections and stretch fabrics to pass smoothly without excessive drag, helping reduce puckering even during high-speed production of more than 5,500 stitches per minute.
The heavy-duty steel construction offers excellent wear resistance for long service life in demanding manufacturing environments.
