Abstract

A self stringing jet for air texturing yarn having a yarn needle slidably mounted in the jet body for movement from a preset operating position to a string-up position. The yarn needle may be removed for inspection without disturbing the appropriate operating position by attaching a flange located outside the jet body to the yarn needle in a manner to engage means for stopping slidable movement of the yarn needle in the operating position. The flange is rotatable from engagement with means for stopping slidable movement of the yarn needle to permit the yarn needle to be moved axially out from the body without disturbing the means for stopping the yarn guiding member or without further rotation; the means for stopping slidable movement of the yarn needle is resettable to various positions to handle texturing of various yarn sizes.
