Description
Cowboy CB3200 Heavy-Duty Cylinder-Bed Leather Sewing Machine
The Cowboy CB3200 is a heavy-duty cylinder-bed sewing machine designed to give leatherworkers, saddlers, harness makers, repair professionals, and smaller workshops the capability to sew thick materials without moving to a larger and more expensive industrial machine.
Its compound-feed walking-foot system synchronizes the needle, walking foot, and feed dog to provide controlled material feeding through multiple layers of leather and other heavy materials.
The CB3200 combines this robust feeding system with a large-capacity barrel shuttle, 10.6-inch cylinder arm, high presser-foot lift, full reverse, and low-speed high-torque servo motor, making it particularly well suited to detailed leatherwork and three-dimensional products.
Key Features
Compound Triple-Feed Walking Foot
The CB3200 uses a compound triple-feed mechanism, with the needle, walking foot, and feed dog working together to move the material through the machine.
This synchronized feeding action helps:
- Reduce shifting between layers
- Maintain consistent stitch length
- Improve material control
- Handle thick and multi-layered leather
- Feed slippery or difficult materials more reliably
This makes the CB3200 suitable for demanding leather applications where consistent material feeding is essential.
Heavy-Duty Material Capacity
The CB3200 can sew heavy leather and other materials up to approximately 16 mm (5/8 inch) in total thickness, depending on the material and sewing setup.
Typical applications include:
- Gun holsters
- Knife sheaths
- Belts
- Harness components
- Leather bags
- Saddlery
- Heavy leather goods
Large-Capacity Barrel Shuttle
The machine uses a large-capacity barrel shuttle hook, allowing it to accommodate heavy thread sizes up to #415.
The larger bobbin capacity also reduces the frequency of bobbin changes during longer sewing operations.
Full Reverse
The CB3200 features a full reverse mechanism designed to allow the machine to reverse into the same stitch holes.
This helps produce cleaner, more consistent seams when securing the beginning and end of a stitch line.
Smooth Material Handling
The CB3200 can be configured with a smooth feed dog, throat plate, and smooth-bottom presser feet to help minimize marking on finished leather surfaces.
This is particularly useful when working with fine or easily marked vegetable-tanned leather.
10.6-Inch Cylinder Arm
The approximately 268 mm (10.6-inch) cylinder arm provides the clearance needed to work with curved and three-dimensional products.
The cylinder-bed configuration is especially useful for:
- Holsters
- Knife sheaths
- Belts
- Bags
- Harnesses
- Saddlery
- Other shaped leather goods
High Presser-Foot Lift
The presser foot provides up to 18 mm (approximately 11/16 inch) of lift, giving the operator additional clearance when positioning thick materials beneath the needle.
Low-Speed High-Torque Servo Motor
The CB3200 is equipped with a 750W/110V low-speed high-torque servo motor.
Controlled low-speed operation makes it easier to sew stitch by stitch when working around:
- Tight corners
- Curves
- Thick seams
- Small leather goods
- Detailed stitch patterns
This is particularly useful for operators who are developing their leather sewing skills and need precise control over the machine.
Designed for Saddlery & Leatherwork
The CB3200 is particularly well suited to applications where heavy leather, multiple layers, and three-dimensional construction are involved.
It can be used for:
Saddlery & Harness
- Saddles
- Harnesses
- Bridles
- Tack
- Leather straps
Leather Goods
- Belts
- Holsters
- Knife sheaths
- Bags
- Pouches
- Wallets
- Other leather accessories
Repair Applications
- Leather repairs
- Heavy-duty stitching
- Equipment repairs
- Upholstery components
- Heavy fabric applications
Beginner-Friendly Precision Control
Although the CB3200 is a heavy-duty industrial machine, its low-speed servo motor makes it easier to control during detailed sewing.
Instead of forcing the machine to operate at high speed, the operator can slow the machine down and carefully guide the material through corners, curves, and difficult sections.
This makes the CB3200 a practical option for both experienced leatherworkers and operators entering professional heavy-duty leather sewing.
Compatible Needles, Bobbins & Accessories
The CB3200 uses commonly available components associated with this class of heavy-duty leather sewing machine, including compatible needles, bobbins, and presser feet.
Its accessory compatibility also allows the machine to be configured for different leatherworking applications as the operator’s needs develop.
