Abstract

A dryer seal. The seal is formed from an elongate multi-layer structure having a strip of fibrous material folded upon itself to establish a folded perimeter edge and a pair of outwardly projecting portions projecting away from the folded perimeter edge. A fibrous interior spacer layer is located between the outwardly projecting portions and a single attachment seam extends at an inboard location substantially parallel to said folded perimeter edge.
