Why does my Brother Sewing Machine needle break?

  William PerezAug 18, 2025
  There are several reasons why the needle might break: * The needle might not be fitted properly. * The needle clamp screw may be loose; tighten it with a screwdriver. * The needle could be bent or blunt, in which case you should replace it. * The combination of fabric, thread, and needle might not be right; choose an appropriate combination. * The presser foot might not be appropriate for the stitch; attach the correct presser foot. * The upper thread tension could be too tight; loosen it. * You might be using the wrong bobbin; only use a bobbin designed for your machine.
