scope:
The purpose of this method is to note the conditions under which a press fabric is measured for size and basis weight. This procedure is intended for use either in the mill or in a laboratory. Use of these conditions will enable paper mills to compare fabrics from one company to those of another with respect to basis weight. This test is to be used for all fabrics regardless of position or product being made on the machine.
