(57) A flat-woven papermakers fabric comprising machine direction and cross-machine direction
yarns (52, 54) provided interiorly of the fabric and between layers of cross-machine
direction yarns 56, 58 existing at the opposed fabric faces. The load-control yarns
(52, 54) are substantially uncrimped and comprise low-stretch, high strength yarns
of a kind ordinarily unsuited for use in the context of papermaking having regard
to an inherently poor resistance to abrasion, heat degradation and hydrolysis.
