Yep, that's the set I bought. The teeth are very wide and aggressive. The needle hole is as large enough to pass a #25 needle. It is definitely a very heavy duty feeder set.

Thank You.

I hope it fixes my issue!

Not sure what's goin on. Especially since I've been doin the same thing for 2 months!!!

Just got my new bobbin casing in and it snaps in now , so that's a step up :D

I'll check in after the feed dog/ needle plate to give my results!!!

Thanks again for ur help!!

I know this is off topic but since there are 31-15 users I thought someone here could help.

My Singer 31-15 keeps breaking the thread when I sew leather but does ok when I sew heaver cloth. I have had the bobbin case, feed dogs and still the problem continues.

I am wanting to put a servo motor and reducer wheel to slow the machine down and maybe that will fix the problem.

Any idea? and Which motor and wheel should I use?

Oh I forgot. I am using #16 leather needle and #46 Bonded nylon thread.

Not really sure? Perhaps change ur tension? Im sure someone else will chime in

Hi, I got my set in the mail today. Did u have to alter urs at all? the feed dog is a TID big on the front right. I could prob use a dremal on the corner of the new feed dog. But was curious how urs fit since u got the same set. I already took it off for the day, but I'll post a vid of it being held there to show u where it's hitting.

My heavy duty set fits perfectly. No problems at all. Maybe you got a mismatched set.

It will take me a while to locate the receipt at home. I bought it at least a year ago, if not longer.

Okay, don't go through too much trouble. I can't seem to find many others online.

If anyone else knows of a place that they would trust to get the heavy duty set, please send me a link... I'm in real need of getting this fixed!!! =)) Thanks much for your time and any efforts put in!!!

Could u perhaps send me a link of the EXACT one u bought? I tried to modify lol but it didn't work. ;))

Finally found the 2012 invoice for the heavy duty throat plate and feed dog I bought for my Singer 31-15. Here are the same items from the same seller.

I cannot predict if the quality has changed or not, since January 2012.

Thanks again soo much for your time regarding this issue! So very kind of you to take your personal time to look at that for me!!!Much appreciation!! <3

That throat plate and doggie are used on many brands of straight stitch machines, not just Singer.

You may have to move the lateral position of the feed dog, and/or the moving mounting bracket, to get the teeth to line up inside the throat plate slots. A large, flat head screwdriver is needed to loosen the screw that locks down the feeder platform. It is shaped like the open jaws of a plumbers' wrench. It is accessed by tilting the head back all the way onto the table. The adjuster screw is on the left side of the bottom of the machine.
