Bobbin Cover Plate for Brother XP2 and Luminaire 2

A bobbin cover plate for the Brother XP2 and Luminaire 2, supplied as a direct replacement for the worn or missing original.

This list comes from the distributor's listing for this part. If your model is not named, do not assume it fits — check the part you are removing against the specification below, or ask us with your model number before ordering.

What this part does

The bobbin cover plate is the clear or metal slide that covers the drop-in bobbin on a top-loading machine. It keeps the bobbin seated, keeps lint out of the hook and gives the fabric a smooth surface to pass over. It is the most frequently lost and cracked piece on a household machine.

Specifications

How to tell if this is the right one

Cover plates are shaped to the needle-plate opening of specific models. Use the model list; a plate from a different model may be a few millimeters off and will not latch.

Signs you need this part

Cracked, missing, scratched enough to snag fabric, or no longer clicks into place.

Fitting it

Press the release button or slide the plate forward and lift. Fit the new plate rear edge first and press down until it clicks.

Questions about this part

Does this bobbin cover plate fit the Brother XP2?

Yes. The Brother XP2 is on the distributor's fitment list for this part, along with Luminaire 2. If your model is not listed on this page, send us the model number and we will check before you order.

Is this the original Brother part?

It is listed by our distributor under the Babylock brand name. We describe every part exactly as the distributor lists it and make no claim beyond that.

Can I sew without the cover plate?

You can, but the bobbin can lift and the fabric can catch on the opening. Replace it.
