Accessories Texparts® Balloon Breakers Breaking news for spinning mills Yarn guide element, traveller and balloon breaker (or anti-ballooning ring) form together the yarn balloon. As the name implies, the balloon breaker has the assignment to limit the balloon to reduce the yarn tension. The up and down movement of the ringrail gives a cyclic change in the balloon length during spinning. This leads to varying yarn tension. Balloon breakers have a relevant influence on the reduction of the variation. In case of a too excessive tension, the yarn strength and elongation can possibly be reduced and even yarn breaks may occur. For Your Benefit Our product portfolio ensures your purchase from one source. We offer all performance influencing components like rings and travellers, yarn guide elements and balloon breakers for a perfect yarn balloon. Precise Form Texparts® Balloon Breakers guarantee highest accuracy to the shape of each breaker.
