What are Split Loom Joiners?

There are 3 Types of KT Split Loom Joiners Available:
- The Split loom Y piece joiner allows 3 paths of loom to be joined. (Sizes Available to suit: 7mm, 10mm and 13mm Split Loom)
- The T piece joiner is similar to the Y piece joiner but is perfect for running looms around corners or objects due to its T design. (Sizes Available to suit: 7mm, 10mm and 13mm Split Loom)
- The split loom end joiner seals the end of the loom giving it a finished appearance. It can also be used to connect more of the same sized loom to continue the length. (Sizes Available to suit: 7mm, 10mm, 13mm and 16mm Split Loom)
