The controlled intake and carding will produce a smooth even batt ready for blending, spinning or felting. Use the 4:1 ratio to blend sliver, colours and different fibre types consistently into an open and airy batt. Adjustable drum clearance - allows you to set the teeth distance for total control of your fibre. All nylon bearings ensure it is light and easy to turn. The card cloth has wire teeth with a special protective coating and a flexible rubber backing for long life. The carder is strong and robust with the body made from Silver Beech hardwood. The carder has rubber feet to prevent it slipping. Card 50gm (2oz) batt quickly and efficiently. It comes assembled and lacquered ready to use.
 

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question
  • Do you sell replacement cloth for the drum carders

    Hello and great question. 
    No, we do not sell replacement cloth for the drum carders.  The cloth is specifically manufactured for Ashford and only sold as part of the drum carder.  The reason for this is that it is fitted onto the drums under special tensioning using designed methods in the factory that result in a very durable drum carder.  Our customers often boast that their Ashford Drum Carder is still going 30 years after purchase.
