Singer Apollo Bobbin Case #421326
Description
Singer Apollo Bobbin Case #421326 is a top-drop, “Apollo-type” bobbin case designed as a direct replacement for Singer sewing machines that use the Apollo/Class 66 bobbin system. This bobbin case securely holds the bobbin, maintains lower-thread tension, and ensures smooth, even stitching performance.
The case includes a tension adjustment screw on the side — giving you the ability to fine-tune lower-thread tension based on thread type and fabric, which helps avoid skipped stitches, thread loops, or uneven stitching.
Made for reliability and consistent performance, this replacement bobbin case is essential when the original becomes worn, cracked, or fails to hold proper tension. It restores proper stitch formation and thread delivery, helping revive older machines or maintain frequent-use machines in optimal working condition.
