CARD CLOTHING
The name used for the clothing of a carding machine, and it consists of a foundation material in which wires are fastened. These wires do the work of carding the cotton. The foundation is secured to the revolving cylinder and is usually made of cotton and woollen cloth and rubber. This cloth is very compactly woven in three layers firmly cemented together, with rubber face to give elasticity to the wires. The wire teeth are inserted in pairs - The coupling bar of each pair is known as the " crown," the carding end of each tooth is termed the " point." Each tooth is bent near the middle, and the bend is the " knee " (see Filleting)
