Standard Stainless Steel Reeds

SSREED

Typically Ships In:
1 - 3 Days (Longer for Some Lengths)

Stainless Steel Reeds (which are rustproof) are stronger and more durable than carbon steel reeds.  If you are interested in any sizes not listed (we do not list them all), please call.

In determining the length of a reed to buy, understand that the lengths we specify are the approximate weaving widths, not the actual length of the reed, which will be approximately 0.75 to 1.0 inch longer. Examine how your reed fits in your beater to determine if total length is critical (normally critical when, in addition to the top and bottom rails, there is some type of vertical support on each end of the beater that restricts total reed length).

Different looms handle this in different ways. You can determine your weaving width by measuring the inside of your harness. Don't order the wrong size reed. If in doubt, call us - 800-441-9665.

Note regarding height: all reeds are approximately 4.75" to 5" high and will fit most looms. Almost all beaters have adjustments for the bearer rails that allow different heights. 

The measurements below are Weaving Widths - Remember to add @ 0.75" to 1" to determine the total width of the reed.

If you need a reed size not listed, please call the shop. 


NOTEDuring the manufacturing process of stainless-steel reeds, machine oil is used as a lubricant. Your new reed may contain remnants of this oil. Mineral spirits (hardware store / home center) or 99% isopropyl alcohol (first aid section of drug store, pharmacy or grocery store) can be used with a rag and/or soft bristle brush (old toothbrush works great) to remove any machine oil present. 

Some reeds may have one OR two end bars. This style may vary from reed to reed and does not affect the functionality of the reed itself.
