Use the SAMF180 listing and its Brother compatibility source. Its condition is materials up to 2 mm thick. The similar SAMF180N name is not a substitute for a model match.
Keep the N suffix when searching shops. Check the software, magnetic-frame selection, fabric exclusions and clearance instructions; thickness alone does not establish suitability.
