Five-Thread Safety Stitch Wide 
 
This stitch is a combination of a Two-Thread Chainstitch and a Three-Thread Overlock 
Stitch.  It is suitable for woven fabrics and provides a durable seam for heavy weight 
fabrics such as denim and terrycloth.  Using  this strong safety stitch eliminates the 
need to reinforce the seam with a conventional sewing machine straight stitch.  The 
Presser Foot Pressure Adjusting Dial makes it  simple to sew on all weights of fabrics.  
The Five-Thread Safety Stitch can have a  width of 2.8mm or 5.6mm, depending on 
which overlock needle position is chosen.
