Velvet Loom Spare Parts

Most wear on a velvet loom happens in three areas: weft insertion (rapier heads, carbon rapiers, blocks and guides), pile cutting (knife bed, slide, knife cord, grinding stone and fabric cutting blade) and the selvedge (weft and selvedge cutters). Our catalogue is organised around these areas, with the gears, jacquard modules, warp and pulley parts that complete them.

Most parts are coded for Van de Wiele MPS, VMM and VME velvet looms; parts for Günne looms are also listed. Where one part fits several models, the product page lists all compatible models.

When cut quality drops, the cause may be the cord, the knife or the stone; our blog has checks that help tell them apart. If in doubt, send a photo of the fabric edge and the part and we will look at it together.
