Unison Feed Mechanism
The JUKI TNU-243 uses a Unison Feed Mechanism that synchronizes the feeding movement of the needle, presser foot and feed dog. This coordinated feeding action helps maintain consistent material movement when sewing thick, layered or difficult-to-feed materials.
The result is improved feeding stability, reduced material slippage and more precise stitch formation, making the TNU-243 particularly suitable for heavy-duty industrial sewing applications.
Large Shuttle Hook
The large shuttle hook provides increased thread capacity and is designed for applications requiring heavier sewing threads. The larger bobbin capacity can help reduce interruptions caused by frequent bobbin changes during production.
High Presser Foot Lift
With a maximum presser foot lift of 20 mm, the TNU-243 provides generous clearance for inserting thick, bulky and multi-layered materials. This makes it easier to handle heavy-duty products such as straps, webbing, canvas assemblies and protective textile products.
Ideal Applications
- Tents and outdoor equipment
- Seat belts and safety harnesses
- Cargo straps and industrial webbing
- Industrial bags and bag handles
- Canvas and tarpaulin products
- Heavy-duty textile manufacturing
- Protective equipment
- Technical textiles

Needle Information
For heavy-duty applications, the supplied needle specification is:
-
Needle: 794 (Nm230), Nm130–Nm280
-
Alternative Needle: DY×3 #21–#28
Please select the appropriate needle size according to the material, thread and sewing application.
