Carpet strip assembly having staples incorporated therein

摘要

The carpet strip assembly has a plurality of two-legged or two-pronged staples (112) fixedly secured therein wherein the staples are arranged within an array comprising two or three longitudinally offset rows of staple fasteners. The number of fastener points per lineal foot of the carpet strip is increased. The two prongs or legs (114, 116) of each staple (112) are integrally connected together by means of a transversely extending crown portion (118). Pull-out resistance of the staples, with respect to the carpet strip, is significantly enhanced.
