In a yarn braking device (B) of a yarn feeder (F) for looms - of the type comprising an annular brake element (E) having a substantially conical and circumferentially continuous braking portion (P), of which at least the radial flexibility is significant and which is positioned coaxial to a body shaped as a drum (4), around which is wound a weft yarn reserve, under an axial spring load (K) and in peripheral contact, along an essentially circular braking zone (Z), with a rim (W) of said drum (4) from which the yarn (Y) is withdrawn, and a flexible and wearproof friction surface structure (S) provided on said braking portion (P) in said braking zone (Z) - said friction surface structure (S) is formed by a plurality of separate elements (C) contacting said braking portion (P) in said braking zone (Z) and movable one in respect of the other.
