Abstract
A heddle shaft is formed of shaft rods which have hollow ends containing inserts fixedly positioned therein and lateral supports which include projections that respectively extend into recesses in the inserts. Clamping screws, which can extend through the shaft rods, apply a compressive force to clamp the projections in place and create detachable corner connections between the shaft rods and the lateral supports.
