This Technical Information Paper provides a means of measuring several fabric characteristics of new press fabrics. For on-machine monitoring of the press fabric, refer to TAPPI TIP 0404-19 "Press Section Monitoring."

The characteristic properties covered in this TIP are:
  • a) the basis weight or unit area weight,
  • b) the air permeability,
  • c) the void volume and
  • d) the pressure uniformity of a press fabric.
The supplier typically performas these measures.

This revision combines information from earlier version of TIP 0404-20 from material from withdrawn TIPs 0404-32 and 0404-34.
