BROTHER Sewing Machine Hook

The hook on a BROTHER sewing machine is an important part of the machine's bobbin system. It is responsible for catching the thread from the bobbin and interlocking it with the thread from the needle to create stitches. The hook is located inside the bobbin case, which is usually found underneath the needle plate. It is a small, curved piece that rotates as the machine sews. As the needle thread is pulled down into the bobbin area, the hook catches the thread and loops it around the bobbin thread to form a stitch. It is important to keep the hook area clean and free from lint or thread build-up, as this can cause the machine to malfunction or produce uneven stitches. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning and oiling, is recommended to ensure the smooth operation of the hook and the overall performance of the sewing machine.
