Abstract

A seam structure for a drying wire, produced by reducing the thickness of the end portion of the drying wire and folding the end portion double and stitching the double wire portion to hold it together; and a method for producing the seam structure. At least part of the stitch (6; 6a, 6b) is sewn in parallel with warp threads (2) in the direction of travel of the drying wire between the warp threads (2) so that it will be positioned below the contact surfaces of the warp threads, the stitch end close to the seam being sewn double over a distance and the stitch end remote from the seam is bonded to the wire side facing away from the web by silicone (7) or some other suitable glue-like material.
