Sewing Machine Belts:


  • Many older sewing machines had visible belts. Some sewing machines have belts that are hidden inside the case.

  • All sewing machine belts must be ordered from a sewing machine dealer. Have the make and model of the machine to order a belt. It is advisable to have an experienced repair person replace the belt if it breaks.
