REINFORCED FABRIC SUBSTRATE AND METHOD FOR MAKING THE SAME

摘要

A fabric substrate for use in reinforcing laminated and coated fabrics. The fabric substrate of the present invention is particularly useful for reinforcing areas along the resulting coated or laminated fabric that may experience local areas of tensile forces, such as areas of attachment. To address these local areas, the fabric substrate includes reinforced weft portions in spaced groups to provide strengthened areas for fastening or attachment of the resulting coated fabric.
