A paper machine clothing, in particular a press felt for a paper, cardboard or tissue machine, includes a load bearing base structure that extends in the longitudinal and cross directions of the clothing and which is formed, for example from a longitudinal reinforcement module substantially providing the dimensional stability in longitudinal direction of the clothing, and a transverse reinforcement module substantially providing the dimensional stability in the cross direction of the clothing, which is arranged on the longitudinal reinforcement module and is connected with same. The transverse reinforcement module is a warp knit fabric, which includes at least one system of warp threads arranged parallel to each other and one system of stitch-forming sewing threads extending substantially perpendicular thereto into which the warp threads are integrated to form a textile fabric. The warp threads extend transversely to the longitudinal direction of the clothing and have a greater flexural strength than the sewing threads. |
