singer 45k Singer 45K25 Roller Foot

[nategines]

I recently got a Singer 45k25 machine up and running. Ive got a standard presser foot on it now. Works great. However, Id like to try out a roller foot. Unfortunately, I can't find one anywhere. Does anyone have any leads on where to find one? Could I fit one that is meant to go on another sewing machine? Anyone selling?

You could try the clone type machines GA5-1 https://www.ebay.com/itm/New-GA5-1-GA5-1R-Roller-Foot-Cowboy-CB2500-Techsew-3650HD-/321787316620

or  this one which is more like the original ones.https://www.ebay.ie/itm/221448164280

or you could try and find an original Singer one, (which are hard to find) or one from an Adler,Seiko,Claes or Hurtu who all had similar models to the 45k25 or flatbed 45k1.

Hello Nategines, I had a Singer sewing machine 45K25 that i sold 5 years ago and I kept, I don't know why a roller foot for it.

If you are interested tell me by a private email, I should be happy if it still works.

I have the same problem, links at previous posts are no longer exist.

May I use Chinese made standart 28mm roller foot with Singer 45k25.

I couldnt find one consistent with GA5-1

It's probably not going to fit on the needle bar of the 45k. I recommend contacting industrial sewing machine dealers who sell the GA5-1 machines and ask if they carry the roller foot assembly for it.

what Wiz said!

The above linked roller foot will NOT WORK. But OEM Adler 4, 5, 104, 105 roller feet will work but they cost big $$

That was my post you quoted I think.    I recently sold my 205-64 so that's not a problem for me any longer! LOL

"Big" money is subject to interpretation I guess...With German goods it's always to be expected.   The irony is that any roller feet Adler would have in stock were either made back in the days of "West" Germany with a production cost of 10% of today or made in the Adler parts plant in Romania where they pay $800 a month tops in wages.

I'm still a little sour about the $126 I was charged for an Adler thread guide pin for one of my 205-370s....And the $26 charged for a plastic lift lever ball....

But if you need it, you need it, Right?

just found a thread from 2024 regarding the Adler Roller Foot.

https://leatherworker.net/forum/topic/120449-help-needed-_-cant-find-roller-foot-for-45k89/

Old parts number for the roller foot was 06422 - new parts number is 104220124 

College sewing in UK had them (out of stock):

but sit down before you click the link 😉 (as I said before)

Back in the days when my interest in sewing machines started I needed a slide plate for an Adler 104 flat bed machine and IIRC they asked 50€ + tax and shipping but that was w/o spring and and screws. That was just one "Adler parts situation" and soon I figured that certain Singer parts (and their clones like SEIKO f.i.) fit for certain Adler machines as well cause Adler back in the old days copied a lot of parts from Singer 45K´s 😉 That was the time when I discovered College Sewing in the UK and their wide range of Singer parts.... (and Seiko, JUKI.... who cloned Singer and so forth....)

So guess why this guy from the land of Pfaff and Alder is so Singer crazy. It´s because of Parts Parts & Parts.

But Brexit changed a lot but I´m still Singer crazy.... Still for the same reason.

I clicked the College Sewing link out of curiosity.  Yeah that's about $455!  That's close to approaching half of what i sold the 205-64 for...!

I've bought some goodies from College Sewing and had pretty good luck so far with "other" prices at least being somewhat affordable.

Brexit?  Is England the source of Singers in your part of the world?   Singers seem to be good machines, but nearly every clone of a Singer I've found made in more modern times was a little better in build quality.  Seiko/Pfaff/Adler etc.
