<p>A press pad is provided for use in a laminate press. The pad comprises a woven fabric of heat resistant strands wherein at least either the warp (14) or the weft (10) comprises a core (11) made up of a plurality of strands (12) within a sheath (13) of an elastomeric material and the other comprises metal strands. Within the scale of the press pad, the strands (12) making up the core lie substantially parallel to one another and to the longitudinal axis of the core (11). In use, therefore, when pressurized in the laminate press, the core structure collapses as the strands making up the core move relative to one another and the core tends to flatten out. This increases the springiness and compensation ability of the press pad without any loss of heat transfer ability.</p> |
