Description

The Singer Angled Gear Set #382980G is a two-gear replacement kit designed to replace the original hook-shaft and lower horizontal-shaft gears (OEM part numbers 163329 and 163997) in many older and mid-range Singer sewing machines.

By replacing the original flat gears with a bevel-angled design, this gear set delivers smoother meshing, quieter operation, and reduced vibration — which translates into more reliable stitch formation, longer machine life, and better overall performance.

The upgraded gear geometry also helps maintain proper timing and tension under load — particularly beneficial when sewing dense seams, heavy fabrics, or during long sewing sessions. The set includes both the hook-drive gear and the lower shaft gear required to complete the hook system repair or upgrade.

Compatibility

This gear set is compatible with a broad range of Singer sewing machines that use the “wind-in-place” bobbin system and the original gear configuration. Compatible models include, but are not limited to:
