STITCH CLASS TYPE 600
The cover stitch or 600 class, often called a flat lock or a flat
seam stitch, is an advanced version of the 400 class and is
used primarily on knits and lingerie.
Machines producing the 600 class are extremely fast and
efficient, operating at 9000 rpms.
The stitch is formed by two or more needle loops passing
through the material, Interlooping on the underside and
interlocking on the upperside.
A spreader or cover thread finger carries the cover thread
across the surface of the fabric between the needles.
These stitches, referred to as top and bottom cover stitches,
are commonly used to cover both sides of the seam with
thread.
Threads must be chained off and be crossed by another seam.
This stitch class uses a lot of thread but provides excellent top
and bottom cover and flat seams.
