Wire heddles with a soldered oval eye. The rounded opening is gentler on fragile and highly textured warp than a plain twisted eye, and the smooth finish keeps the heddles from catching on each other as you thread. Which length fits your loom Measure from the top edge of the upper heddle support bar down to the bottom edge of the lower bar. That's your shaft frame. The heddle that fits it is made slightly longer so it travels freely across the bars, including out at the far left and right of the frame.
