Textile tubes & yarn carriers
Yarn carriers, textile tubes and fabric cores wound for winding tension and humidity stability — for New England mills, weavers and cordage makers.
New England still spins, braids, and weaves — and every spindle needs a carrier that stays round under tension and true through humidity swings. NHPT textile tubes are wound for dimensional stability at winding speed, in the put-ups your equipment expects.
Tubes, cones and put-up specs
Straight tubes and tapered applications, specified by traverse, put-up weight, and machine fit. Send your current carrier and we will match it.
Mill-grade consistency
Uniform wall and balanced winding mean carriers that run the same on Monday as they did in March.
Freight that makes sense
Carriers are light and bulky — exactly the product that should never ride 1,000 miles. Same-week delivery across the New England mill belt.
