Nylon Reeds for Rigid Heddle and SampleIt Looms – Ashford
Durable nylon reeds designed for Ashford Rigid Heddle and SampleIt looms, available in multiple densities to suit a wide range of yarns and weaving projects.
Detailed description
Ashford nylon reeds are designed to provide strength, durability and versatility for use on Rigid Heddle and SampleIt looms. They make it easy to adapt your loom setup to the yarn size and fabric density required for each project.
Reeds ranging from 2.5 to 10 dpi feature a larger eye, making them ideal for novelty yarns, textured yarns and thicker fibres. The 12.5 dpi (50 / 10 cm) and 15 dpi (60 / 10 cm) reeds are designed for finer yarns and allow you to create a tighter, more compact fabric.
Made from strong, long-lasting nylon with silver beech wood rails, these reeds provide excellent stability, smooth yarn movement and reliable performance, even with frequent use.
