Abstract
Abstract The disclosure is of a new wet press felt for use on papermaking machines. The wet press felt of the invention comprises a conventional felt fabric having needled thereto a plurality of non-woven layers of synthetic, textile fibers. Interposed between the layers of synthetic textile fibers are mesh fabrics (4 to 32 mesh) which support the individual non-woven layers and retard compaction of the overall construction.
