Smooth warps. Straight selvedges. Less stress. The Leclerc Raddle takes the guess-work (and the back-ache) out of back-to-front warping. Slip your warp ends into its evenly spaced dents, beam in minutes, and start threading with every end exactly where it belongs.
Warp Wider, Straighter, Faster
- Perfect Spread 2 dents-per-inch spacing ( in / 1.27 cm) keeps ends parallel for tidy, tangle-free beaming.
- Rock-Solid Maple Hand-finished hardwood rail plus corrosion-proof steel pins stand up to decades of warps.
- Clamp & Go Use it in the beater, on the back beam, or clip it to the breast beamhardware included*.
- Warp Wide or Narrow Eight sizes (960 in / 24150 cm) fit everything from portable table looms to 60 floor looms.
- Ply-Perfect Tension Even spacing = even draw-in, happier selvedges, and fabric that flattens beautifully off the loom.
Set-Up in 4 Easy Moves
- Secure the raddle on or behind your looms back beam (or rest it in the beater slot).

Pro Shortcuts for Stress-Free Beaming
