Super High Shank System:
Kenmore super high shank presser feet are a specific, rare type used on certain vintage Kenmore 158 series machines. They feature a greater distance between the presser foot attachment point and the needle plate compared to standard low or high shank machines, measuring approximately 1.25 inches (1¼") or more.
Important Compatibility Notes:
- Center needle position only - This foot is designed for center-homing machines
- Standard low or high shank feet are NOT compatible with super high shank machines
- Using inappropriate feet can cause the needle to hit the foot
- The needle opening slot must align correctly with center needle position
- Only 2 super high shank feet are still manufactured as aftermarket: concealed zipper and zigzag
What is a Concealed Zipper Foot?
A concealed zipper foot (also known as an invisible zipper foot) is a specialized attachment used to install invisible zippers that are completely hidden within a seam. When closed, only the small zipper pull is visible at the top.
Key Features:
- Grooved underside: Two deep guiding grooves gently unroll zipper coils during sewing
- Precise stitching: Enables needle to stitch right at the base of coils for seamless integration
- Professional finish: Creates clean, invisible zipper installations ideal for formal wear and tailored clothing
- Consistent alignment: Keeps zipper aligned and guides fabric smoothly
- Versatile: Can also be used for couching thick yarn or cording onto fabric
Perfect For:
- Installing invisible zippers in garments and home decor
- Formal wear and tailored clothing projects
- Cushion covers and pillow projects
- Achieving professional, high-quality finishes
- Decorative couching applications
