Prewound Bobbins Compatibility Chart by Machine Brands & Models
|
Information in this chart has been gathered by questioning our subscribers and customers, who kindly provided their feedbacks about experience with various prewound bobbins. Thanks for everyone who contributed to build this list! If you feel it can be updated in some way - please email us with your experience.
Unless stated otherwise, the vast majority of embroidery machines seem to work best with plastic sided prewound bobbins. Just check the size you need, and start using prewounds. They can save you a lot of time and trouble. People who start using prewound bobbins, usually never return to winding bobbins again.

Brother:
Some Brother machines do have a different default bobbin case - not "L".
Yet, we've been told that they use to come with a spare bobbin case for the widely
available L-size prewound bobbins. |

To be 100% sure whether your machine takes L or A style bobbins, it may be a good idea to call your dealer. Or, take a ruler, and measure your "native" bobbin VERY CAREFULLY ( because A & L are very close in size):
A size diameter should be 0.8 inches (20 millimeters), height should be 0.4 inches (10 millimeters).
L size diameter should be 0.8 inches (20 millimeters), height should be 0.3 inches (7.5 millimeters).
If it's neither - check if your machine came with spare bobbin case for L-size bobbins. Brother machines usually do.
Also, if you order bobbins from us, and see that something doesn't work like it should - within 60 days you may return them in original packaging, and get a store credit or refund. So you're absolutely safe to try.
