Specifications

This spindle brake is built for Rieter ring frames — matched to the original Rieter brake geometry so it stops the spindle within the doff window, every doff, across every spindle on the frame. Vindex Industries manufactures this spindle brake since 1985 at Surendranagar, Gujarat, exporting it to spinning mills in 87 countries in bulk order quantities.

View the product specifications on this page for details, then send an enquiry with your Rieter frame model for a confirmed match.

Uniform braking effort across all spindles is what keeps doff times short on long frames — one dragging brake position slows the whole section.

On a long Rieter frame, doffing speed is set by the slowest spindle to stop. Brakes that engage unevenly — one position lazy, the next sharp — stretch the doff, tire the doffing crew, and leave ballooning yarn to tangle on the positions still turning. The Rieter brake on this page is matched to the original brake geometry so every position answers the stop command alike: at a machine stoppage, at an end break, and at the doff. A simple floor test finds tired brakes — compare spin-down time across a section after a stop, and the outliers become your replacement list. Send the Rieter frame model and the spindle count per frame for a set quotation.

Rieter Spindle Brake — Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Rieter spindle brake do?

It stops the Rieter spinning spindle quickly for doffing, piecing or maintenance.

Is it interchangeable with the original Rieter brake?

Yes. It is made to original dimensions for a direct fit on Rieter spindles.

When should it be replaced?

When braking slows down, the spindle coasts too long, or the lining is worn.

Do you supply in bulk and export?

Yes. We supply mill-quantity lots and export to 87 countries.
