An improved textile spindle and yarn support tube construction for use in textile winding machines, in particular, those having a reciprocating rail, ring and traveler type winding mechanism. The spindle comprises a base portion having a conventional whorl and mounting pin, and an upper, yarn tube-receiving shaft portion of generally circular cross-sectional configuration. The upper portion of the spindle shaft is provided with radially outwardly biased elements which engage the internal passageway of the yarn tube when seated thereon to provide driving connection of the tube to the spindle. The yarn supporting tube is of elongate shape having an internal longitudinal passageway therethrough. The upper portion of the passageway is provided with an inward protrusion which serves to abut the upper end of the spindle during placement of the tube thereon to positively stop downward movement of the tube on the spindle and thereby provide uniform vertical alignment of tubes on the spindles during the winding operation.
