Stainless Steel Reed for Table Loom 61cm / 24″ – 16 DPI

Precision Craftsmanship for Wide-Width Textiles: The 12 DPI Stainless Steel Reed

Achieve the perfect balance of detail and durability with the 61cm (24″) Stainless Steel Reed in 12 DPI (12 dents per inch). Engineered specifically for 24-inch table looms, this reed is the gold standard for artisans working with finer yarns who want to utilize the full width of their loom for larger, more intricate projects.

At 12 DPI (approx. 48/10cm), this reed is perfectly optimized for fingering weight (4-ply) yarns, mercerized cottons, and fine linens. It allows for a higher thread count (sett), which results in a stable, high-quality cloth with a luxurious hand—perfect for everything from tailored clothing fabric to heirloom-quality table runners.

Why the 12 DPI Stainless Steel Reed is Essential for Your Studio:

• Rust-Proof Excellence: Crafted from premium stainless steel, this reed is entirely resistant to corrosion and humidity. This protects your white and light-colored warps from rust stains, ensuring your work remains pristine.

• Frictionless “Smooth-Glide” Dents: Each dent is meticulously polished to a mirror finish. This reduces stress on delicate fibers like silk or merino, preventing fraying and pilling during the weaving process.

• Consistent Fabric Density: The 12 DPI spacing provides a refined, professional finish that is neither too loose nor too stiff, allowing your fibers to “bloom” perfectly during wet finishing.

• Heavy-Duty Frame: Built to maintain perfect horizontal alignment across the full 24-inch width, providing a powerful and even beat even on high-tension projects.

• Maximum Versatility: While ideal for 12 DPI projects, this reed is also perfect for 4, 6, or 24 ends per inch (EPI) through simple sleying variations.
