Options

Air Damping (A)
An adjustable, precision air dashpot provides steady tension readings for those applications where high tension fluctuations exist

Lever (L) A heavy-duty, lever-operated mechanism moves the outer rollers for easy acquisition of the running filament. Recommended for models of 10 K higher.

High Speed Rollers
(K) For speeds up to 3500 m/min (U) For speeds up to 5000 m/min.
