Understanding the Numbers/Letters
BERNINA presser feet are numbered and may have one or two additional versions with a letter that follows
the number, such as Edgestitch Foot #10C or Jeans Foot #8D.
No Letter—The number without a letter refers to a foot engineered to be used with BERNINA
models that have a CB Hook and a maximum stitch width of 5.5mm. These feet may also be
compatible with models that have a 9mm width when a 9mm width is not applicable, such
as when making pintucks with feet #30, 31, 32, or 33.
The Letter "C"—When a foot number is followed by a C, it indicates a version of the foot
made for models that have rotary hook systems and a maximum stitch width of 9mm. The
"C" stands for coded and refers to the sensor on the foot that works with the electronics of
the machine to engage the wider stitch width (see page 8 for more information on sensors).
The sole of the "C" foot is usually larger to fit the wider feed dogs of the rotary hook machines.
Exceptions: Overlock Foot #2/2A: 2A is larger to fit the wider feed dog but does not have a sensor
for a wider stitch because the overlock stitches are not used at wide widths. Extra Wide Gathering
Foot #16C: 16C is larger to fit the wider feed dog but does not have a sensor for a wider stitch width.
The Letter "D"—The feet that have a number followed by a D are designed
to work with the 8-Series (models 830 and 820) Dual Feed feature. After
attaching the foot, the dual feed mechanism is positioned in the cutout on the
back of the foot, engaging the BERNINA Dual Feed system. It is recommended
that the D-Feet are used only when engaging the BERNINA Dual Feed feature.
