The design of a catch cord needle varies depending on the type of loom and the tension requirement of the catch cord. The exact shape, length, and tip style affect how smoothly the cord moves and how well the fabric retains its edge integrity.

When these needles wear out or bend, they can cause misalignment of the cords, leading to defects in fabric edges. That’s why their timely replacement is crucial for maintaining production quality.

Operators are trained to regularly check for wear and lubricate these parts as needed. Advanced needles may also be coated with materials like titanium nitride for longer lifespan and heat resistance.

Catch cord needles are compatible with brands like Sulzer, Dornier, and other major loom manufacturers, and are selected based on machine model and fabric type.

Catch cord needles are precision-engineered tools designed to manage the insertion and withdrawal of catch cords during weaving. They ensure accurate guiding and minimal abrasion of cords through the mechanical process. These needles are made of high-quality steel or alloy with specific coatings to reduce friction.
