Frequently Asked Questions

What type of needles does the 5525SD take?
16 x 257 from size 9-18

What size bobbin does the 5525SD take?
Bobbin #40264 is used for the 5525SD.

Can I sew leather with the 5525SD?
Yes, but only light leather. A leather foot is recommended for this. For heavier leather, please look at our walking foot machine line-up.

Are there any other feet that will work with the 5525SD?
Yes, there are dozens of specialty feet that are sold separately, including zipper feet, compensating feet, Teflon® feet and more. 

Does the 5525SD accept a binding attachment?
Yes, off the shelf binding attachments are available that will work for the 5525SD.

What is the warranty on the 5525SD?
Reliable warranties the 5525SD to be free of defects for one year.

What does direct drive mean and what are the benefits?
Direct drive technology eliminates the need for an under-table motor and instead, mounts a highly efficient motor directly to the shaft of the machine. This allows for more torque (power), smoother and quieter operation and it eliminates the belt which traditionally connects the motor to the sewing head.

What are the advantages of having an automatic thread trimmer and how do I know if it’s worth the extra cost?
Having an automatic thread trimmer on your sewing machine is the ultimate time saving device for production work. It’s particularly helpful when doing a lot of short stitch runs.

What is the purpose of an automatic back tack function?
The 5525SD uses a conveniently located “knuckle switch” to activate the back tack function. The convenience is that its location is very handy and the operation is much easier to use than a traditional reverse lever.

How fast does the 5525SD sew?
The 5525SD is rated at a top speed of 5,000 rpm.

What is the maximum stitch length?
The 5525SD will sew a stitch up to 5mm in length.

Will I have to oil the 5525SD?

Occasional oil maintenance for the 5525SD is required. Add oil through the filler plug (not the base pan) and ensure the plug is securely replaced after filling.


 What does step stitching feature do?
Using the “knuckle switch” that’s on the machine head, you can move the stitching forward one stitch at a time for maximum control. It’s a great feature for corner-stitching.

What comes with the 5525SD?
Your Reliable sewing machine is supplied with our top-level heavy duty “I” type adjustable stand, a 55cm x 120cm table top with special surface that resists cracking and a drawer to store your accessories.

Does the 5525SD come with a light?
Yes, the 5525SD comes with two lights. A small one that is mounted near the pressure foot that provides a very focused light on the needle area and one of our famous UberLight Flex lights that will provide a much broader light for your work and has brightness and color temperature adjustments as well.

How do I buy needles, supplies and accessories for the 5525SD?
For the fastest service, please visit our website to order the #16x257 needles in the size you require. For other items for the 5525SD, we invite you to call 800-268-1649 and speak to one of our customer service specialists.

Does the 5525SD require assembly?
When you receive your 5525SD, you are just a few minutes away from sewing. Simply remove the fully assembled machine from the pallet. Attach the thread stand and fill the oil reservoir with the supplied oil. Plug it in and away you go. From unpacking the pallet to sewing in less than 10 minutes.
