Strauch "200x2" (was "500") Series Drum Carder pictured with the optional Brush Attachment

For those who need a larger production rate, the Double-Wide 200x2 series is available.

The large drum on the 200x2 series double wide models is 15" wide with the same 7" diameter as the standard carder and produces a batt approximately 14" x 22" long. Overall dimensions are 19.5" wide x 24" long. The frame is 4" high. This carder is meant to be used at the edge of the work surface to allow turning of the crank handle (the 405 series has a taller frame allowing the carder to be used anywhere on the work surface). This model also has a pulley attached to the end of the shaft so that the carder can be motorized by the end user.

*FREE SHIPPING* applies to orders from the USA lower 48 states only. Alaska, Hawaii, and other countries are billed partial shipping.
