Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a concealed zipper foot and a regular zipper foot?

A concealed zipper foot is specifically designed to install invisible zippers by gently unrolling the zipper coil so the needle can stitch very close to the teeth. A regular zipper foot is used for standard exposed zippers and allows stitching on either side of the zipper teeth but doesn't unroll the coil.

Will this foot work on my Janome machine?

This foot is designed for Janome horizontal rotary hook machines with 5-7mm maximum stitch width. Check your machine's compatibility list or contact OSP Machines to confirm it will work with your specific model.

Do I need special zippers to use this foot?

Yes, this foot is designed specifically for invisible (also called concealed) zippers, which have a different construction than regular zippers. The coil on invisible zippers is designed to roll back during installation, which this foot facilitates.

What types of fabric can I use this foot with?

This concealed zipper foot works with all fabric weights, from delicate silk jersey to heavy suit-weight woolens and tweeds. The key is using the appropriate invisible zipper weight for your fabric.

Is this foot difficult to use for beginners?

While installing invisible zippers takes some practice, this foot makes the process much easier by positioning the zipper correctly. With a bit of practice and perhaps a tutorial video, even beginners can achieve professional results.
