Abstract
A blanket is disclosed for an extended nip press which includes a shoe and a felt. The blanket includes a band-shaped body which defines an inner and an outer surface. The inner surface is smooth for cooperation with the shoe such that the inner surface slides relative to the shoe. The outer surface cooperates with the felt and the body is fabricated from monocoque fiber-reinforced polyurethane instead of a laminate to inhibit delamination and creep of the body during use of the blanket.
