ABSTRACT:
A cover fabric for power transmission belts, hoses and the like, having improved durability in service, appearance, and handling characteristics. The cover fabric includes a strip of Jersey knit fabric having a plurality of stitch loops forming interconnected loop chains. The interconnected loop chains form wales and courses. The strip is bias cut such that each of the wales are disposed at an angle with respect to the longitudinal axis of the knit fabric strip. The knit fabric cover may include a coating of elastomer, such as polychloroprene, thereon.
Preferably, the wales are disposed at an angle of from about 40.degree. to about 70.degree. with respect to the longitudinal axis, and, more preferably, at an angle of about 55.degree.. Preferably, the wales of the knit fabric cover are disposed at an angle of greater than 90.degree. with respect to the courses, and, more preferably, at an angle of from about 100.degree. to about 110.degree..
