C-shaped rod slots E and F are formed in the ends of heddle element D. Slots E, E' are formed in the ends of female heddle element C. Slot E' includes an extended upper slot portion 86 which receives a reduced neck 98 of the shank 40 of male heddle element D. A shoulder 100 of the male heddle element interfits with a ledge 92 of slot E' of the female heddle element.
