Why Does My Thread Keep Breaking While Sew

Be sure to ALWAYS RAISE the presser foot when threading the top thread--this releases the tension disk so the thread will seat properly.

Why Does My Thread Keep Breaking While Sew

Singer Sewing Machine Breaks Thread

Watch your thread while sewing slowly. You may be able to see where the problem originates. It may just be a matter of the thread popping out of a thread guide or looping around something it shouldn't.

Avoid old or bargain bin variety thread. Invest in fresh, good quality thread.

Try installing a brand new needle.

When threading the upper thread, ALWAYS RAISE the presser foot. Remove all the thread from the machine and rethread from the beginning. Confirm the thread path is correct and that the bobbin is loaded and threaded correctly. Set the tension to the midway point to start and then tweak it for your particular machine.

Not a technician, but I had same issue not long ago, it was old dried out thread. Once I replaced with new thread, no more issues. Something easy to try. Also might want to double check to make sure no thread is between the pressure plates. I use canned air to spray them out once in a while between annual cleaning.

Perhaps the cone is the one jamming? check that the tread has a clear path all the way tru. also check the tension on the stich....

Serger thread breaks

1. Is the serger threaded correctly?

2. Is the needles inserted correctly?

3. Is one of the needles bent or damaged?

4. Is the tension adjusted too tightly?

5. Is the tension adjusted to accommodate thickness of thread being used?

6. Are you using inferior quality thread?

7. Is the thread feeding of the cone/spool freely?

8. Is the needle size correct for the type of fabric being used?

9. Are the needles being used the correct one for the serger?

10.check in the needle plate area to see if there is a burr

11. Check the looper to see if there is a burr or if it looks damaged


If all of the above suggestions don't help then the serger needs to be checked to see if there is something wrong with the loopers and also see if there is a problem with the tension.

The needle thread breaks
1. the needle thread is not threaded properly
2. The needle thread tension is to tight
3. The needle is bent or blunt
4. The needle is incorrectly inserted
5. The needle thread & the bobbin thread are not set under the presser foot when starting to sew
6. the threads were not drawn to the rear after sewing
7. The thread is either to heavy or to fine for the needle

It doesn't matter so much the thickness of the stabilizer but more a matter of it being taut like a drum and the proper stabilizer for the fabric you're using. Couple of reasons the thread breaks...the thread gets caught on the edge of the spool in the crack where the thread originally starts, you're not using the right size spool cap or the upper thread is wrapping around the spool pin. When I use my 170 for embroidering I always use the vertical spool pin to eliminate this problem. Try it and let me know how you make out.

the needle thread tension is wrong
bunching up under the material indicates that it is too loose

Some machines just won't take metallic thread no matter what you do.
