Product Details
50 metal sewing machine bobbins, about 20mm across and 11mm high, a size used by many Brother, Janome and Singer domestic machines.
Having a tin of spare bobbins means you can wind every thread colour for a project before you start and swap colours in seconds, instead of unwinding the same bobbin over and over. These bobbins are metal with a 6mm centre hole and punched side plates, the style used in machines with a metal bobbin case. Bobbins are not interchangeable across every model, so compare the size and shape with the one in your machine before ordering.
What You Get
| Pack | What You Get | Best For |

Fit check: take the bobbin out of your machine and measure it. If it is metal, about 20mm across and 11mm high, and your manual calls for metal bobbins, this size should suit. Do not use metal bobbins in a machine that specifies plastic ones.
Why Buy These Sewing Machine Bobbins
- 50 in a pack - enough to pre-wind a full thread collection
- Metal construction - holds its shape and does not crack like worn plastic bobbins
- Common size - about 20 x 11mm, used by many domestic machines
- Faster colour changes - swap a pre-wound bobbin instead of re-winding mid-project
- Workshop spares - keep extras for classes, quilting groups and repairs
Care & Use
Wind thread evenly at a moderate speed and do not overfill the bobbin. Store wound bobbins in a bobbin box or case to stop thread tangling. Remove lint from the bobbin area of your machine regularly, and replace any bobbin that becomes bent or burred.
Please allow a small measurement tolerance due to manual measurement, and slight colour variation due to different monitor settings.
Where It Gets Used
Home sewists, quilters and dressmakers wind a bobbin for each thread colour in a project so they can switch with no downtime. Sewing teachers and craft groups keep a box for students who forget theirs.
They also replace lost or damaged bobbins in older machines, where a bent bobbin causes skipped stitches and thread nests.
