Abstract

The invention concerns a stitched seam for high-tensile woven fabric sections, in particular dryer screen fabric for paper machine clothing, wherein the warp yarn loops (6) located at the end of the two woven fabric sections (1, 2) to be interconnected are interconnected at the common seam line by a closure wire (9). Associated with the warp yarn loops (6) at the location of the stitched seam and with the closure wire (9) is at least one reinforcing yarn (8) which takes up loops disposed parallel to the warp yarn loops in the eyelet region in order to take up the closure wire.
