Function & Benefits:
The needle clamp is a critical component that secures the sewing needle to the needle bar, ensuring the needle remains properly aligned and stable during high-speed sewing. A worn, loose, or damaged needle clamp can cause the needle to shift position, resulting in skipped stitches, uneven stitch formation, needle breakage, or fabric damage. This replacement needle clamp restores proper needle retention and alignment, ensuring reliable stitch quality and preventing costly sewing interruptions. The clamp works by tightening around the needle shank with the attaching screw, creating a secure grip that holds the needle in the correct position.
Associated Parts:
This needle clamp is frequently used in conjunction with Thread Guide #163146 on certain Touch & Sew models for complete needle bar assembly.
Installation Note:
Remove the old needle clamp by loosening the attaching screw. Position the new needle clamp on the needle bar with the flat side facing forward. Insert the needle through the clamp opening and tighten the attaching screw securely to hold the needle in place. Ensure the needle is inserted to the proper depth and the flat side of the needle shank faces the back of the machine.
