(57) A smooth faced fabric for use for example, in the manufacture of rubberised composite
sheeting suitable for printing blankets, is composed of a rigid warp knitted structure
of fine man-made filament yarns A, an inlaid warp of smooth, coarse man-made filament
yarns B and C, and a weft insertion of coarse and preferably bulked or textured man-made
filament yarns D. The warp inlay and weft insertion do not interlace, so that a very
flat and smooth warp surfaced fabric is achieved. In making a printers' blanket, the
fabric may be rubberised by conventional techniques.
