ABSTRACT:
A method of assisting in the seaming of a papermaker's fabric using a seam assist device is disclosed. The seam assist device is comprised of two portions. Each portion having an attaching edge that is attached to a predetermined distance from the ends of the fabric by fitting spiral or loop elements into voids in the surface of the fabric and anchoring the elements using a binder or pintle. Connecting edges on each portion are then connected together, thereby causing the two attached ends of the fabric to be brought together for seaming.
