Bobbins for Janome-Sears

Nov 05, 2006 2 Replies

Okay folks, I give up. I took my Janome 4618 LE to my dealer to get serviced, nothign wrong, just some tension issues and he said I had the wrong bobbins in there. Okay, I thought it was a fluke, so I went home and looked at all my bobbins and couldn't find a difference. Then I went to Joanns and looked there and they look the same but some say they are class 15 and some are class 66. I then looked through my owners manual and it says nothing about a specific size. Please someone help me....



I've never had a Janome, but it's interesting how some SM manufacturere wont specify the bobbin class! Its as though they want to force you into getting their own bobbins even though a generic might do.

ANyway, I went onto Janome's web site and found your model uses Bobbin Part Number: 102261103. When I did a general search on GOOGLE for this part number, class 15 bobbins were mentioned. So....I'd try class 15.

The Janome Bobbin is a High quality 15 class (Plastic) bobbin. The 66 class will fit as they are smaller and should not interfere with sewing, but I would still recommend the correct bobbin
