A seaming area for a woven industrial fabric, a fabric, and a method of providing a seaming area and seam.

An on-machine-seamable industrial fabric includes rings (54) in the seam region.

The guide aligns and guides the ends through the stitching area.

A seaming element for joining opposed ends of woven or nonwoven industrial textiles, textiles including seaming elements, and methods of making a seam area for textiles.

The single seam finger glove is less irritating to the mouth of a user since it has half the seam area.

A seam zone (40) exists at each end of the fabric between the respective seam loops and the last thread (2) of the transverse thread system.

The seaming area and the method provide increased seam strength and reliability, with significant reduction of time and costs of manufacture.

A seam zone (40) exists at each end of the fabric between the respective seam loops (35) and the last thread (2) of the transverse thread system.

A seam zone (40) exists at each end of the fabric between the respective seam loops (35) and the last thread (2) of the transverse thread system.

At least one additional transverse thread is interwoven in at least one seam zone (40) with the longitudinal thread system to provide increased surface contact for better batt adhesion in the seam zone.

A seam zone (40) exists at each end of the fabric between the respective seam loops (35) and the last thread (2) of the transverse thread system.

The flangeless seam preferably further comprises a barrier member disposed between at least a portion of the overlapping portions of the first member and the second member forming a laminate having a seam area.

At least one additional transverse thread (50, 51) is interwoven in at least one seam zone (40) with the longitudinal thread system to provide increased surface contact for better batt adhesion in the seam zone.

At least one additional transverse thread (50, 51) is interwoven in at least one seam zone (40) with the longitudinal thread system to provide increased surface contact for better batt adhesion in the seam zone.
