Flat Yarn Dryer Mesh

BGW22608 High Hydrolysis Resistant Flat Yarn Dryer Mesh — A position-matched dryer-section fabric

BGW22608 is listed as a 8-harness 1.5-layer high hydrolysis resistant flat yarn dryer mesh, in the Flat Yarn Dryer Mesh family. Its construction and the dimensional values below are transcribed from the supplied product schedule. The listed air-permeability window is 4740 m³/m²·h (300 CFM). The application notes identify dryer sections for cultural, coated and specialty papers, where sheet surface quality and hydrolysis exposure are considerations. Review the forming or dryer-section layout, furnish, seam and operating conditions before specifying.

Key Features

  • Flat warp yarns are paired with round wefts; the double-layer flat-warp construction provides broad contact and wear surfaces.
  • A smooth, even fabric face is intended for applications with surface-quality requirements.
  • The stated low air-permeability configuration is intended to avoid overly rapid drying that may contribute to picking or delamination; confirm the target with the machine position.
  • A small-loop seam is specified for a flatter joint and high seam strength.

Applications

The supplied schedule lists dryer sections for cultural, coated and specialty papers, where sheet surface quality and hydrolysis exposure are considerations. For a dryer fabric, the position within a multi-cylinder dryer section matters because speed, contact conditions, sheet support and the desired air-flow window vary along the machine. For a forming fabric, the furnish, drainage demand, retention objectives and required sheet-side support should be reviewed together. The grade name alone is not enough to choose a construction.

Use the stated structure and yarn layout to shortlist the model, then compare it with the current fabric and the exact machine position. The available product information does not specify a guaranteed production result, service life or energy saving. Those outcomes depend on the operating system and must be assessed from the mill's own run data.

If this model is being considered as a replacement, share the paper grade, target basis weight, machine speed, fabric width, loop length, seam type and current permeability or forming data. The technical team can then verify whether the supplied schedule is appropriate or whether a position-specific variation should be discussed.

Selection Notes

Air permeability should be selected for the machine position, not from a generic product label. Where the schedule lists a range, the final target is configurable and must be confirmed against operating conditions. Where no value is listed, request the value for the proposed construction rather than inferring it from another model.

For an actionable quotation, provide machine speed, paper grade and basis weight, fabric width, loop length, current fabric model or construction, current air-permeability or drainage data, seam arrangement and machine position. Include any observed operating issue only if you have measured or documented it. This helps distinguish a construction change from a dimension or seam replacement.

Existing Product Information

BGW22608 is a polyester flat yarn dryer fabric with an 8-harness 1.5-layer construction. Its flat yarn warp is designed to provide a smooth paper-contact surface, while the stated 300 CFM air permeability offers a defined starting point for dryer-section matching. The product is specified with 1.60 mm thickness and breaking strength of at least 2000 N/cm. It is evaluated for dryer positions where paper surface quality, stable running and hydrolysis resistance are important selection considerations. A final recommendation should be confirmed from the paper grade, dryer position, operating speed, machine width, loop length, temperature, moisture conditions and current fabric performance.

Cultural paper, coated paper and specialty paper dryer sections where paper-contact surface quality and stable operation are important. For a technical review, provide the paper grade, dryer position, machine speed, fabric dimensions and existing fabric information.

Frequently Asked Questions

What machine positions is BGW22608 listed for?

The supplied application notes list Dryer sections for cultural, coated and specialty papers, where sheet surface quality and hydrolysis exposure are considerations. Final suitability depends on the actual machine position and operating conditions.

Is the air permeability fixed for BGW22608?

The supplied schedule lists 4740 m³/m²·h (300 CFM). Ask for confirmation if your operating target differs.

What information is needed for a quotation for BGW22608?

Provide paper-machine speed, paper grade and basis weight, fabric width, loop length, current-fabric details, seam requirement and the intended machine position. Values not included in the supplied schedule must be confirmed before ordering.

Can the listed specifications be changed?

Some constructions and permeability targets may be configurable, but the available design range depends on the machine and position. Treat the listed dimensions as the supplied reference and request written confirmation for the quotation configuration.
