2.5 Layer Forming Fabric

2. 5 layer forming fabrics are also known as support shute double layer fabrics or double layer extra designs. It is to further improve the characteristics of the double-layer design that extra support is provided by double-layer forming fabrics.

2. 5 layer forming fabrics are also known as support shute double layer fabrics or double layer extra designs. It is to further improve the characteristics of the double-layer design that extra support is provided by double-layer forming fabrics.

It’s a standard double layer forming fabric with an additional weft yarn on the sheet side of the fabric.

Polyester 2. 5 layer forming fabrics can be woven in 8, 16, or 24 shed patterns. The weave design offers a uniform distribution of pulp fibers and provides outstanding drainage capacity due to its high top surface open area. The large diameter of weft yarns and the long crimp on the machine side provide excellent wear resistance and runability. The 2. 5 layer forming fabric has excellent features for pulp fiber support, paper sheet formation, and high drainage.

• Improvement in sheet formation, smoothness.

• Reduction of wire mark.

• Easier to clean.

• Larger diameter yarns in wear side to improve life potential.

2.5 layer forming fabric’s weaving effect greatly increases the fiber support index due to the addition of a fine weave at the top. The ratio of the top and bottom wefts is 2:1. It suitable for paperboard,newsprint,writing paper,tissue paper,printing paper,kraft paper.
