About the 441-PRO

The 441-PRO is our version of the machine the saddlery and holster trade calls simply a 441. It is a cylinder arm, compound needle feed, walking foot lockstitch with a large shuttle hook, a 794 needle and 16.5 inches of working space. It sews a stack of leather three quarters of an inch thick with 277 or 346 thread, and it does it at 800 RPM or at one stitch a second, whichever the work wants.

The harness feet fitted as standard are narrow so the needle gets close to buckles, D-rings and hardware. The 3/8 inch stitch length gives the long, straight saddle stitch look on belts and holsters. The shuttle holds a large bobbin so a saddle skirt does not need a bobbin change halfway.

It is not a fast machine or a light one. For bags and wallets in 4 oz leather a 1341 is the better buy.

Questions about the 441-PRO

Is this the same as a Cowboy or Cobra 441?

Same class, same mechanical design, same needle and feet. We build ours to our specification and we are the people who set it up and service it. Judge by the stitch on your leather: send a sample.

What thread and needle for holsters?

277 thread top and bobbin with a size 200 to 230 leather point needle. For belts, 346 with a 230.

Can it sew thin leather?

With a smaller needle and 138 thread it will, but it is slow and heavy for that. Shops that do both keep a 1341 next to it.
