Abstract

A wear resistant leno heddle is disclosed which has a doup and two lifting heddles. The lifting heddles are formed in one piece by moulding a plastic material. The moulding technique allows the lifting heddles to be formed with varying cross-sectional dimensions according to the required strength of a given area. Reinforcing members may also be embedded within the lifting heddles to further increase its structural strength.
