Pfaff 269 Sewing Machine Information

The Pfaff 269 sewing machine was an industrial-grade sewing machine. Although no longer made, these sturdy sewing machines can still be used for sewing in industrial settings or in situations where you are sewing very thick material.

Machine Type

As an industrial sewing machine, the Pfaff 269 was sold as a head, which is a sewing machine sold without a motor or table. Industrial sewing machines are often sold without motors or other power sources and without a table or cabinet.

Motors

The Pfaff 269 can support a number of variable speed motors suitable to the power specifications of a number of locations. Machines installed in the United States can be fitted with a 110-volt motor. Machines installed in factories overseas can be fitted with a 220-volt motor.

Stitches

In addition to basic straight stitches and zigzag stitches, the Pfaff 269 supports some decorative stitches, which include bead stitches, crescent stitches, overedge stitches and elastic binding stitches.
