Kromski 32″ Rigid Heddle | 80 cm Replacement Reed
د.إ244.34
Dominate your largest projects with the Kromski Heddle 80 cm (32″). Engineered for the 32″ Harp Forte, this rigid heddle is crafted with Reinforced European Alder and high-durability polymers to prevent sagging across its expansive width. Available in 5, 8, 10, and 12 DPI (Dents Per Inch), it ensures a perfectly level beat and professional-grade drape for full-width bed throws, wide shawls, and apparel yardage.
The Wide-Format Standard
In 2026, the 32-inch loom represents the peak of rigid heddle capability. The Kromski 80 cm Heddle is what makes these grand projects successful. At nearly three feet wide, maintaining a consistent “beat” across the entire weft is the biggest challenge for a weaver. The Kromski design uses weighted wooden rails to provide the necessary momentum, ensuring your fabric density is uniform from the left selvedge to the right.
Engineering Against the “Bow”
The primary risk with wide heddles is “flexing” in the center under high warp tension. Kromski solves this with Hand-Finished European Wood rails that offer superior rigidity compared to all-plastic alternatives. This structural stability keeps the slots and eyes perfectly aligned, preventing the “pinched” center look that can ruin a wide project. The laser-polished polymer interior ensures your warp threads glide effortlessly, protecting your yarn from the friction of thousands of “up-down” movements.
Unlocking 64-Inch Textiles
The 32″ Harp Forte is a legend for its Double-Heddle potential. By pairing two 80 cm Heddles of the same DPI, you can weave “Double Width” cloth. This technical feat effectively allows you to produce a 64-inch wide blanket (over 5 feet!) on a single rigid heddle loom. This level of production requires the exact mechanical tolerances found only in genuine Kromski precision-cut reeds.
