19.85 د.إ
Ensure a smooth and responsive spinning experience with the Ashford Brake Band Set (Small). This genuine replacement kit includes one high-strength nylon brake band and two precision-calibrated tension springs. Designed to fit the Ashford Joy and e-Spinner series, this set restores the sensitive ‘draw-in’ required for everything from fine lace to bulky art yarns, preventing bobbin slippage and inconsistent tension.
The Heart of Tension Control
The relationship between your flyer and your bobbin is governed by the brake band. Over time, nylon cords can become stretched or glazed with lanolin, and springs can lose their “snap,” leading to a wheel that feels sluggish or difficult to adjust. In 2026, as high-speed electric spinning and portable wheels dominate the craft, keeping your tension hardware fresh is the easiest way to prevent plying frustration and ensure your yarn has the perfect amount of twist.
Precision Engineering for Sensitive Fibers
The two springs included in this kit are specifically weighted to provide a “fine-tune” range. This allows you to make microscopic adjustments to your tension knob—essential when spinning delicate fibers like silk or superfine merino, where too much take-up can snap the thread, and too little can cause over-twisting. The nylon cord is chosen for its low-friction coefficient, ensuring that as the bobbin fills and becomes heavier, the brake remains consistent.
Universal Portability Maintenance
Because this is the “Small” set, it is the perfect size for the Ashford Joy—the world’s premier folding travel wheel—and the e-Spinner 3. These wheels are often used in varied environments, from humid outdoor festivals to dry indoor studios. Replacing your brake band set annually ensures that environmental changes don’t affect your wheel’s performance, keeping your mobile spinning studio in peak mechanical condition.
