Abstract: A woven seam webbing is illustrated for receiving pintle means for joining dryer felts or any other endless belts of the type which are joined by passing a pintle means through loops which are carried by respective ends of the belting and intermeshed. The loops comprise monofilament filling yarns which are carried adjacent an edge of the webbing being spaced so as to be intermeshed with loops carried by a similar webbing positioned at an opposite end of a dryer felt and the like.
