FAQs About Singer 27 & 127 Replacement Parts

Are parts for the Singer 27 and Singer 127 interchangeable?

What kind of bobbin do these models use?
Both use a long vibrating shuttle bobbin, also known as a bullet-style bobbin. We carry original and reproduction options. Shop all bobbins for Singer sewing machines →
