Скачать или смотреть How To Replace The “Brake Sponge” On The Bond Elite Knitting Machine (And Or Ribber)

In this video I show you how to remove and replace the sponge strip that adds tension on the needles of the Bond Elite, known as the “brake sponge”.

This video will apply to Brother KX models and Silver Reed LK and HK models too. The procedure for removing and reinserting the sponge and needles is the same, accessing it will be slightly different though but use your best judgment for disassembly where machines vary.

Here are a couple of links to some suitable sponges for the Bond Elite.

Here is where you can buy the Silver Reed brake sponge - https://www.andeeknits.co.uk/silver-r...

Here is where you can buy a more, do it yourself sponge, with the iron on tape - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2036625737...

I have used both versions and both work equally well on the Elite and Brother/Silver Reed plastic bed machines.
