Kromski Interlude Brake Band Set | Scotch Tension Replacement Kit
د.إ27.62
Restore the delicate balance of your wheel with the Kromski Interlude Brake Band Set. This complete replacement kit features the official high-tensile monofilament nylon cord and the specifically calibrated tension spring required for the Interlude’s Scotch Tension system. Designed to provide consistent, stutter-free friction against the bobbin whorl, it allows for micro-adjustments in tension, ensuring your yarn winds on smoothly without snapping delicate lace or fine singles.
The Secret to “Butter-Smooth” Take-Up
In 2026, the hallmark of an Interlude spinner is the ability to spin a wide variety of weights on one machine. However, after hundreds of hours of spinning, the nylon cord can become “glazed”—meaning it gets slick and loses its ability to grip the bobbin. This leads to a “lazy” bobbin that won’t pull the yarn in, or a jerky take-up that snaps your thread. A fresh Interlude Brake Band Set returns your wheel to its factory-fresh, intuitive state.
Calibrated Spring Tension
Not all springs are created equal. The spring included in this set is tension-rated specifically for the Interlude’s geometry. It provides enough resistance to hold the brake steady while remaining sensitive enough to respond to the tiniest turn of your tension peg. This is critical when spinning “short-staple” fibers like cotton or fine merino, where even a fraction of an ounce of extra pull can mean a broken end.
Silent, Professional Performance
Kromski uses a specialized low-friction nylon for the brake cord because it offers a consistent coefficient of friction. Unlike cotton strings that can “grab and release” (causing the bobbin to chatter and vibrate), this cord glides smoothly over the bobbin groove. The result is a whisper-quiet spinning experience that lets you stay focused on the rhythm of your hands.
