Hemp Spinning Wheel Drive Band Replacement – 48 lb Natural Cord
Keep your spinning wheel running smoothly with this natural, durable 48 lb hemp cord — an eco-friendly alternative to synthetic drive bands. Ideal for single drive (Scotch tension), or double drive spinning wheels, this strong yet flexible hemp cord offers just the right amount of grip and resistance for consistent treadling and smooth spinning.
🌿 Why Hemp?
Naturally strong, biodegradable, and sustainably grown, hemp is a perfect match for fiber artists who value eco-conscious materials. Unlike synthetic cords, hemp offers a natural grip and ages gracefully with your wheel. This material is chosen for its superior ability to perform in both grabbing and slipping when/where necessary. The single or double drive option is compatible with all single or double drive wheels.
Lengths of Hemp Provided:
Brake: 3’
Single: 7’
Double: 15’
Details:
• Material: 100% natural hemp cord
• Strength: 48 lb. test
• Diameter: Approx. 2mm
or .09375"
• Lengths: I have made sure that there will be enough 48lb hemp to fit any wheel whether it’s a single or double drive wheel, and the brake band is way more than enough for a scotch tension setup. There may actually be enough for 2 and you will certainly get enough to be able to tie the knot.
• Color: Undyed natural beige. This material is left in its natural, undyed state. It will not mark a wheel it’s on and there are no dyes or stains to get on your wheel.
• Finish ends with a square knot or whip finish to secure. You can alternatively, sew the ends together to form your joined drive band.
Recommended Use:
Perfect for replacing worn-out bands for a brake for scotch tension, or a single, or double drive wheels. Sustainably packaged and shipped with care for fellow spinners.
