R ANGLE WITH FLAT SURFACE TO INCREASE THE ADHESIVE STRENGTH

摘要

Embodiments provide fastening slats for use in a flexible tonneau cover system for covering and sealing a bed of a pickup truck. The fastening slat may include a substantially flat elongated slat having a width and a thickness. The elongated slat may be insertable in a channel of a side rail of the flexible tonneau cover system. The fastening slat may also include a first fastening portion coupled with a substrate that is configured to wrap around at least a portion of the elongated slat such that at least a portion of the substrate contacts a bottom surface of the elongated slat. The first fastening portion may be coupleable to a second fastening portion of a flexible cover of the flexible tonneau cover system that is extendable over a bed of a pickup truck.
