An Afghan Khal Mohammadi rug is a high-quality, hand-knotted rug originating from northern Afghanistan, particularly in the Kunduz, Mazar-e-Sharif, and Andkhoy regions. These rugs are known for their deep red hues, intricate geometric patterns, and exceptional craftsmanship.

Key Features of Khal Mohammadi Rugs:

  1. Material: Made from high-quality wool, often hand-spun and dyed with natural pigments, giving the rug a soft yet durable texture.

  2. Colors: The dominant color is a rich, deep red or burgundy, with contrasting black, dark blue, and ivory highlights.

  3. Patterns:

    • Traditional Khal Mohammadi designs feature repeated guls (octagonal motifs) and geometric floral patterns.
    • Borders typically have intricate, symmetrical designs with repeating elements.
  4. Knot Type: These rugs are hand-knotted using the Turkoman knot (asymmetrical or Persian knot), contributing to their durability and fine weave.

  5. Origin: The design was perfected by Afghan Turkmen weavers, particularly from the Khal Mohammadi tribe, who are credited with refining the dyeing process and enhancing the richness of the red tones.

  6. Durability: Known for their resilience, these rugs are dense and tightly knotted, making them suitable for high-traffic areas.

Why Are Khal Mohammadi Rugs Special?

  • Their rich colors and detailed patterns make them highly sought after in both traditional and modern interiors.
  • They are considered some of the finest Afghan rugs due to their superior wool quality and craftsmanship.
  • The deep red color is unique and is achieved through natural vegetable dyes.

Material: 100% Wool

Works well. You need to drill a 3/8” hole
Appears to be well made, alignment bar slides in nicely. As stated, you need to drill a hole in the bar for the gimble bearing driver, the directions are not clear, what I did was before I take out the old gimble bearing, put an O ring on the bar close to the last step on the bar, slide the bar all the way in, then carefully slide the bar out, this marks the distance from the back of the gimble bearing to where the shaft on the outdrive bottoms out, move the O ring a 1/4” towards the stepped part of the alignment tool (this is so you won’t bottom out the alignment tool when driving the gimble bearing in) then slide the driver puck up to the O ring and use a 3/8” diameter transfer punch through the side hole in the puck to mark the bar. You need to drill a 3/8” diameter hole in the alignment bar, two V blocks, some clamps, and a drill press will make drilling much easier, after the bar is securely mounted and centered in the drill press, use a center drill, then 1/4” drill first, using plenty of oil, drill all the way through, then use the 3/8” drill, deburr both sides and you should be good to go. People complain that it doesn’t come pre-drilled, the reason is that not all out drives are the same so you have to fit it to the outdrive that you have. Fortunately, I have a machine shop at my house and have a jig setup with various drill bushings, but the method I described above should work for you. Just make sure you’re perfectly centered and secure before you start drilling.

Worked for Volvo Penta SX Gimbal Bearing
Very heavy tool, I was surprised. Pulled my bearing like it was nothing. Putting the new bearing in was a little more difficult as you have to drill a hole in the engine alignment shaft where it will work for your particular outdrive. Not hard, but it does not come pre-drilled as the required depth for each particular gimbal bearing differs by manufacturer and model. Measure your bearing placement before removal and check that it was installed correctly in the first place. The bearing should line up with the grease fitting and the o-rings on the drive shaft should end up riding in the middle of the bearing. once you have your measurement drill the hole, I used a drill press. I suppose you could use it on multiple outdrive models as long as you can drill more holes.

Great value
This kit worked perfectly on my Alpha one mercury outdrive. I saw a lot of people mention that it was a hassle to drill the hole when you better have all this alignment stuff. I threw it in use my regular drill drill guide and then the second hole was lined up. Pulling Gimble be very easy. I did have to adjust it up at an angle because my bearing was sitting in their crooked and it came out the second time I made the adjustment to the angle. I would highly recommend this.
