Features & Benefits

Key characteristics that make this product the right choice for your paper machine.

Industry's Best Fiber Support

SSB (Sheet Support Binder) technology uses a specialized binder yarn system that provides the highest fiber support index in the industry (≥180), delivering superior sheet formation with minimal wire marking for the most demanding paper grades.

Optimized Drainage & Retention

Precision-engineered triple-layer weave balances rapid water removal with superior fiber retention, achieving first-pass retention rates of 90–95% for improved sheet quality and reduced fiber loss.

Superior Surface Properties

Ultra-fine top layer yarns (0.11–0.13mm) combined with SSB binder system deliver virtually mark-free sheet surface — essential for tissue, printing & writing, and premium paper grades.

High-Speed Stability

Engineered for modern high-speed paper machines up to 2,200 m/min. Maintains stable formation characteristics and dimensional stability at maximum operating speeds without fabric flutter.

Extended Service Life

Premium PET monofilament with optimized weave patterns delivers 60–90+ days of continuous service on high-speed tissue machines — minimizing machine downtime and reducing total cost of ownership.

Anti-Contamination Design

Self-cleaning weave structure resists fiber and filler buildup, maintaining consistent drainage performance throughout the fabric life with minimal chemical cleaning requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about this product — answered by our technical experts.

What makes SSB triple-layer different from standard triple-layer?
Expand
SSB (Sheet Support Binder) uses a specialized binder yarn system that provides approximately 30% better fiber support compared to standard triple-layer constructions. This translates to less wire marking, better sheet surface properties, and 15–20% longer fabric life. SSB is the industry standard for high-speed tissue and premium paper grades where sheet quality is paramount.
What machine speeds is SSB fabric suitable for?
Expand
SSB triple-layer forming fabrics are engineered for modern high-speed machines from 800 m/min up to 2,200 m/min. The superior dimensional stability (≤0.6% elongation) and optimized drainage characteristics ensure consistent performance across the full speed range.
How long does SSB forming fabric typically last?
Expand
Typical service life on high-speed tissue machines is 60–90+ days. On medium-speed packaging and cultural paper machines, service life extends to 90–120+ days. Actual life depends on machine speed, paper grade, filler content, and cleaning practices. We provide specific estimates based on your operating parameters.
Can SSB fabric be customized for my machine?
Expand
Yes. Every SSB fabric is custom-engineered to your machine specifications including width (up to 12.5m), length, mesh count, air permeability, and surface characteristics. We analyze your machine parameters to recommend the optimal weave design and yarn configuration.
What is the typical delivery time for SSB fabric?
Expand
Standard SSB triple-layer fabrics are delivered within 20–30 days. Rush orders can be accommodated with 12–18 day delivery for urgent requirements. Contact our sales team for current lead times based on your specifications.
