Why Metal Bobbins Matter
Vintage Bernina machines were designed for metal bobbins. Metal provides proper weight for optimal tension, durability that lasts decades, smooth operation in vintage bobbin cases, and heat resistance during extended sewing. Using the correct metal bobbins helps preserve your vintage machine's performance.
Why Stock Extra Bobbins
- Keep multiple thread colors wound and ready
- Save time - no rewinding when changing colors
- Replace worn bobbins that develop burrs over time
- Hard to find - stock up on these vintage-specific bobbins
Bobbin Care Tips
- Wind evenly using your Bernina's bobbin winder
- Don't overfill - leave a small gap at the top
- Check for burrs regularly and replace damaged bobbins
- Store wound bobbins in a bobbin box to prevent tangling
- Use the winding slot - engage it on the spindle for secure winding
About These Vintage Bernina Models
These select vintage Bernina models represent classic mid-to-late 20th century engineering. Known for robust construction and reliability, many are still in active use today. Models like the 830, 840, 850, 940, and 950 are particularly sought-after by vintage sewing enthusiasts. With proper maintenance and correct replacement parts like these metal bobbins, they continue to deliver excellent stitch quality decades after manufacture.
Note
IMPORTANT: Does NOT fit Bernina 640 Artista (uses different bobbin). Fits standard 640 and 640-2 only. Always verify your model uses this bobbin type before purchasing. Check your manual or measure existing bobbins to confirm 21.8mm diameter and 7.3mm height.
