CORRECTION!! - This tensioner DOES NOT come with the M or L style insert as he stated in this video. You will need to figure out which one your machine uses (M or L) and buy it separately. Not sure how he had an insert in the package. However, if you read all the comments on Amazon about this exact issue, you will see it clearly does not come with the piece. It only costs about $10 for the insert, but completely ridiculous they don't include it and cause confusion.
We can not speak as what is supplied by other resellers. However The Towa gauge as supplied by Echidna Sewing does come standard with the L style adapter directly from the Manufacturer. We also now supply it with two additional adapters manufactured by our company. These adaptors are designed to suit the late model bobbin cases as stated in the video. The M style adapter is available as an optional extra..
Hello Thread Chemistry T-shirt & Print Co. we are a company based in Australia, and our Towa Gauges DO come complete with the L Style and we also include two other adapters. Here is the link for you www.echidnasewing.com.au/digital-tension-gauge
@rebwolfe2702 Which Brother machine do you have? The Brother machines normally use an L or an A bobbin. If it is a domestic machine you need the insert for the right type of bobbin case that you have.
Hi @annco4461 here is the link for the adapter: www.echidnasewing.com.au/cb-class-15-bobbin-case-adapter-for-towa-tension-g and here is the Bobbin compatibility list for you: vw-superiorthreads.storage.googleapis.com/docs/bobbin-compatibility-list.pdf
@tungvo4686 Hi there, you would adjust the top tension in the settings of the machine but if you have set the bobbin case tension correctly using the Towa gauge, you should have the top tension set on 00. If the top tension is not correct, there may be another issue happening with your machine. Can you give us any further information as to what is happening?
@kathyainsworth3647 Yes it will, you just need the right adaptor for it that you need to purchase separately. Here is the link to the adaptor: www.echidnasewing.com.au/towa-adapter-for-husqvarna-pfaff-drop-in-bobbin
@Colletta As it is a Brother machine that has a drop in bobbin, you purchase the Brother insert: www.echidnasewing.com.au/towa-adapter-for-brother-and-janome-drop-in-bobbin
hi i have the TM1 older type gauge i live in the UK what is the cost of a set of adapters to set the tention on the sewing machine bobbin case for the Janome 6600P Memory Craft machine please, the purchase cost and the P/P please
@tangoandcashone1 Thanks for your message. You will find the adapter here: www.echidnasewing.com.au/towa-adapter-for-brother-and-janome-drop-in-bobbin You will have to go onto our website and put it in the cart to work out the shipping and cost.
I have machines that use the Class 15 bobbin, which is the same diameter as the L style. TOWA has an analog gauge (TOWA BTG2 TM2) for the Class 15A bobbin. When using the Digital Gauge, TOWA has adapters for the TM1 and TM3 (aka L and M), but I can't find an adapter for it to mimic the TM2 (Class 15). If the Class 15 bobbin is the same diameter as the L style, do we use the L adapter?If you don't know the answer, could you please ask your TOWA distributor? Thanks.

How do I know which adapter to use as I have Brother Stellaire xj1 and Innovis F420 machines and use A bobbins? Great video, very informative!
@rebwolfe2702 Which Brother machine do you have? The Brother machines normally use an L or an A bobbin. If it is a domestic machine you need the insert for the right type of bobbin case that you have.
Do you sell just the hook bobbin adapters as individual items without the thread tension measurement unit?
Yes we do sell the bobbin adapters seperately, here is a link to them on our site:

Is it possible to pass on the number of the insert you need for a household sewing machine like bernina artista 630? TIA!!

@gab5258 Thank you for your enquiry - Sometimes we do have promotions that require a code. You will need to phone us in store for further details.
Can you show me the way ajust top tension with Towa tension gauge ( I use Brother Nv880e).

will that work with my Huskavarna Diamond?

Hi. I have a singer xl 420. Which adapter will I need?
@kira Unfortunately we are unable to know as we have not created an adaptor for the singer machines.
@@EchidnaClub Okay. Thanks
The bobbin from my machine looks like the bobbin from the brother machine shown in the video.
@kira0187ify If you can get to one of our stores we could see if it fits?
@@EchidnaClub do you have any stores located near Columbia South Carolina?
Hello! Which bobbin insert would I need for a Brother NQ1600E? Would like to order one today! Thanks in advance!
@Colletta As it is a Brother machine that has a drop in bobbin, you purchase the Brother insert:
