A heat bond tape for carpet seaming and a method for making the tape are disclosed. A yarn tape (13) is fixed to a porous carrier strip (12) during the tape knitting by stitching the yarn filaments to the carrier strip preferably by warp chains (19). The resulting tape carrier is adhered to a non-porous backing strip (11) by a thermoplastic material (14), which may be melted to join adhesively the edges of two pieces of carpet to the heat bond tape in the conventional manner. |
