Pfaff 145 different hooks. What’s the difference?

[SingerDad]

Are there differences in the actual hooks for pfaff 145?  I am looking at hooks   91-010 165-91 And 91-010 850-91.   Is the only difference the gib ( one is a full gib meant for “lighter weight material”).   Or is there a difference in hook shape or something else?

w/o having seen pictures usually the hooks for thinner threads have a raised tip on the hook gib.

That’s my question.  Pfaff list multiple numbers for hooks and gibs on the 145 parts list.  I am questioning is it only the gib that’s really different?

Yes,the only difference is the raised gib (for thinner threads) otherwise they are the same.

Thanks Cowboy!  Thats what I needed to know.  

I guess you can just dremel down the full gib to allow thicker thread then?
