Description
Description
We guarantee that heddles shown here will fit Schacht looms. But we cannot guarantee that they will fit looms made by other manufacturers.
See the heddles chart to choose the correct heddles for any Schacht or Louët loom. These notes refer only to Schacht looms:
- For Arras Tapestry Loom, use 4" heddles.
- For Cricket Quartet and and Schacht Tapestry Loom, use 5-7/8" (red) Texsolv heddles.
- For Schacht Table Looms, Wolf Pup looms (all models) and Baby Wolf looms, we recommend inserted eye heddles—Texsolv heddles are too light.
- For Mighty Wolf and Standard Floor Looms, either inserted eye heddles or 9" Texsolv heddles (brown) work well.
- For the Schacht Inkle Loom, you can substitute 8-5/8" heddles (small green) for string heddles.
- For Schacht Cranbrook Looms, use 12" green heddles. For older Cranbrook models, use 11-1/2" blue heddles.
Flat steel heddles and pink 10-1/2" heddles are no longer available.
Measuring heddles
-
Inserted eye
Heddles must fit on the upper and lower heddle bars of your loom's shafts (harnesses).
For metal inserted eye heddles, you need the center to center length.
-
Texsolv
Heddles must fit on the upper and lower heddle bars of your loom's shafts (harnesses).
Measure between the cutting loops. Heddles need to fit on the heddle bars without sagging. If heddles are a little too long—up to 2 mm—they will work.
