Wide woven fabric having dipped and treated cords is made by first connecting warp cords of relatively strong material in at least two narrow sheets. The narrow sheets are dipped and treated after which they are positioned in loom letoff rolls adjacent a loom where they are joined to form a wide fabric having a width greater than the width of either of the narrow sheets. The warp cords from the narrow sheets are guided from the letoff rolls into the loom and during the process the narrow sheets may be run through a cord separating apparatus to separate the warp cords. The warp cords may be woven in the loom with a dipped and treated weft cord to provide a wide reinforcing sheet with a heavy woven construction having a width greater than the width of any one of the narrow sheets.
