Thread Tensioner Magnet Upgrade Kit
Thread Tensioner Magnet Upgrade Kit
Eliminate inconsistent thread tension commonly associated with the use of springs. Get rid of wing nuts that are either 1) difficult to turn making thread changes a pain; or 2) turn too easily causing thread tension to increase/decrease without warning. The installation of opposing magnets provides the consistent force needed against the spool and eliminates the direct link between the rotating thread spool and the wingnut causing changes in tension.
Replacing your standard springs tension setup could not be easier. Simply remove and replace the washers and spring with the magnets from the kit having the common color orientated towards each other. You can now choose to use a standard wing nut making thread color changes a breeze.
The Thread Tension Upgrade Kit includes qty 2 powerful neodymium magnets incased in a protective layer to prevent damage to magnets from dropping or when snapped together. The case colors easily identify the poles of the magnets making setup a breeze.
Kit includes 2 magnets and instruction sheet.
