The Schacht Variable Dent Reed allows you to alter sections of the reed to allow for a warp of varying thicknesses of yarn or for different densities in the sett. The reed frame can be easily adjusted to incorporate any combination of the 5, 8, 10 or 12 dpi reed sections.
Each size of the variable dent reeds include a selection of reed sections, and additional reed sections are available to order separately.
