Warp breaks usually start at the eye
Every warp end runs through a heddle eye. A rough or badly formed eye rubs the yarn on every pick until it breaks. We check eye shape and finish on every batch.
How long should the heddle be?
Heddle length depends on the loom and the height of the harness. The safest way is to measure a working old heddle end to end, or send us a photo. For heald frames, frame heddles come in 520, 580 and 620 mm.
Read the article →How many grams of spring tension?
The length and tension of the spring that pulls the heddle down decide how cleanly the shed closes. Too weak, and the heddle won’t return; too strong, and the jacquard and cords carry extra load. Example: the 1020R has a 4.0 × 1.5 mm eye, a 24 cm spring and 60 g tension. The right value depends on the fabric and the jacquard.
I don’t know the size of the old part.
Send a photo. We’ll pin down the size together and make a sample if needed.
Can I get a sample?
Yes. If needed we make a sample first; you try it on the loom and we start the order once you approve.
Renewing the whole harness? We’ll propose heddles, springs, pulleys and cord together for your loom.

Missing something is fine — a photo is often enough. We will ask for the rest.
