Description
The Handi Quilter Horizontal Spool Pin is a simple but essential accessory for longarm quilters who work with metallic threads, flat threads, or any specialty thread that feeds unevenly from a vertical position. By allowing the spool to unwind horizontally, this pin promotes smooth, consistent thread delivery — reducing breaks, tangles, and tension issues during long quilting sessions. It mounts directly into the threaded hole at the top front of the machine and is compatible with all Handi Quilter longarm machines.
Key Features
- Horizontal spool orientation allows thread to unwind smoothly, reducing breaks and tension problems common with delicate or metallic threads.
- Designed specifically for use with metallic threads that tend to twist or snap when fed from a vertical spool position.
- Ideal for flat threads and other specialty threads that do not feed evenly from the top of a standard spool pin.
- Mounts securely into the threaded hole located at the top front of the Handi Quilter longarm machine frame.
- Compatible with all Handi Quilter longarm machine models, making it a versatile addition to any HQ setup.
- Compact and straightforward to install — no tools required for most setups.
