Cane Webbing
Cane webbing is generally used in chair seats and backs where a groove has been routed in the frame. Cane webbing is also used for cabinet doors, speaker enclosures, vents, folding screens and much more. How to measure for the correct piece of webbing? It is best to measure the opening from groove to groove at the widest dimension in each direction, then add 2 inches to dimension when ordering.
