Built to Fit Leclerc Looms—Perfectly
These reeds are designed to match Leclerc’s taller-beater floor looms. They fit weaving widths from 9½” up to 120” and install smoothly for reliable, even tension across your warp.
Why Stainless Steel?
- Rust-resistant: Great for humid studios—no warping or corrosion.
- Long-lasting: Built for heavy use without wear or degradation.
- Clean, smooth sleying: Minimizes reed marks and improves fabric finish.
Get the Right Sett Every Time
Choose from 4 to 25 dents per inch (DPI) to match your yarn weight and weave structure. Whether you’re working with fine cotton or bulky wool, there’s a DPI that fits.
Why Choose the 4” Inside Height?
Need more clearance for thick warps or large sheds? The taller 4” reed profile provides extra space—ideal for multi-shaft projects, bulky yarns, or loom setups that require more vertical movement.
What Looms Does This Reed Fit?
Not all Leclerc reeds are the same height. Here's how to know if this tall (4”) version is right for your loom:
Use 4” Inside Reeds (5¼” Outside) with:
- Nilus II Jack Loom
- Nilus II Counterbalance Loom
- Colonial I & II
- Shaft-Switching Loom
- Some models of the Nilart
Use 3½” Inside Reeds (4¾” Outside) with:
- Mira II
- Nilus (original)
- Fanny & Fanny II
- Artisat
- Dorothy Table Loom
- Compact Loom
- Medico Table Loom
- Most older Leclerc looms
Not sure what you need? Measure your current reed or the inside of your beater slot—your reed height should match within ⅛".
