GC20698-2

This standard 25" long arm machine gives a wider working space for harder to handle items. The bobbin winder on the top middle of the head makes for easy operation. Two large vertical axis hooks provide uniform stitch quality thereby allowing smooth and quiet operation with a long service life. A longer version of Model GC20618-2, it offers many of the same features in a longer machine and now comes in a 40" version, model GC20698-2L (an industry first) as a special order. It is used to sew tents, awnings, car and truck covers, hot air balloons, sails and other large work pieces where two simultaneous rows of lock stitches are required. It is also available in an 25" long undertrimming version model GC20698-2-D for those seeking higher productivity with added functions.
