Towa Bobbin Case Tension Gauge – TM-1 Standard Style L

The Bobbin Case Tension Gauge is an amazing tool that allows you to accurately measure the amount of tension in your bobbin thread.

Bobbin thread tension is a surprisingly important part of quality embroidery. If the thread is wound incorrectly,  or the tension adjustment on the bobbin case is too tight or too loose, it can lead to thread breaks, bobbin thread showing on the top of the garment, and looping thread. Not only is the thread wasted, but the end product can end up looking inferior.

Achieving the correct tension can be a tedious and difficult process involving lots of wasteful trial and error, as it usually involves estimating the tension when setting it by hand.  Using the Bobbin Case Tension Gauge, you can get an instant and accurate reading of the amount of tension in your bobbin / bobbin case.  This then allows you to quickly adjust the tension to the correct setting, giving you the best possible stitch every time.

Size “L” to suit most standard commercial embroidery machines.
