Brother NS40 Parts & Accessories

We hold 6 items whose specification names the NS40: extension tables, inserts & frames, needle plates, feed dogs & needle parts, bobbins & hooks. Parts made by Brother are listed under the Brother name; Sew Steady tables and inserts are cut to this model's bed. Nothing on this page is assumed from a sibling model — if a part is here, the NS40 is named on it.

Most-replaced parts on the Brother NS40

Needle Plate A Assembly Brother HE240 NS40 (XE1827201, $29): a needle strike leaves a burr around the hole that snags thread and fabric; on a serger the stitch finger wears and the edge stops forming cleanly.

Bobbin Winder Brother HE240 NS40 NV900 SE350 SE400 (XE1495001, $21.90): a winder tyre that has hardened spins without winding; the unit replaces as one.

SEW STEADY TABLE Brother NS10 NS40 NS80 24x32 (DW-BR139G, $299): an extension table is cut to this machine's bed and free-arm position; sibling models are not automatically the same.

Finding your model number

The model number is on the machine itself, not on the carry case or the manual — look for a plate or sticker on the front of the base, the right-hand side, the back near the power socket, or underneath. On a Brother it is printed as NS40 and the letters and suffix are part of it; a sibling model with a different suffix can take different parts.

Frequently asked questions

Which parts do you stock for the Brother NS40?

6 items whose specification names the NS40: 4 extension tables, inserts & frames; 1 needle plates, feed dogs & needle parts; 1 bobbins & hooks. Each one is listed above with its price and whether it is the manufacturer's part, a compatible part, or an accessory cut for this model.

Will a Sew Steady table for the NS40 fit a different Brother model?

Only if that model is named on the table's page. Tables are cut to the bed shape and free-arm position; the names listed on each table are the models the distributor specifies. Email us the other model number before ordering.

Do these parts also fit the Brother NS80?

4 of the 6 items on this page name the NS80 as well, because the two models share those parts. The rest do not — check the fits-these-machines list on each part, and see the related machines below.

My NS40 needs a part that is not listed. Can you get it?

Email the part name and your model number to support@ultimatesewingandvac.com. If the distributor's catalog carries it we will quote it; if the fitment is uncertain we will say so rather than guess.

Do you ship the same day?

No. Orders are released to the warehouse the next business day and tracking is emailed when the parcel ships. We do not hold stock ourselves, so if an item is unavailable after you order we email you first.
