    I need some of this material.
    It's a juke type material with a rubber line to help seat return to normal.
    I'm looking for a source .
    Thanks for your help.

    Any upholstery supply house. We have one in the city about an hour from me. Do you have a city near you? You will probably need to go there for foam and fabric too.

    A lot of big fabrics shops like Han****s, Hobby Lobby caries it. It’s also used in home furniture.

    The jute webbing with the dark blue lines is made for seat backs. The jute with the red lines is of better quality and made for seat bottoms. There is a difference. The lines aren`t made of rubber. They are also made of jute.

    Jim, what is the difference? Stiffness, or quality?

    Guy's I live in rural America.
    It's not the end of the earth but you can see it from here. I'm in the northeast corner of Kentucky and I drive through a tunnel and I'm in Tennessee.
    Would you have s website I could order from?
    Or a phone number. Thank you

    It reminds me of the stuff lawn chairs used to be made with.

    I have two old camera bags that have that for the shoulder strap. The rubber provides a bit of extra grip!

    There is no rubber in the Jute webbing. Be sure to get a stretcher as well. Don`t poke yourself with the sharp points.
