<p>An on-machine-seamable press fabric for the press section of a paper machine includes a multi-layered integrally woven base fabric having two systems of machine-direction yarns (32, 34) forming seaming loops (42, 44) along each of its two widthwise edges. A seaming spiral (52) is attached to the seaming loops in both rows at each of the two widthwide edges. The two seaming spirals are used to join the press fabric into endless form during installation on the press section of a paper machine.</p> |
