Abstract:
Linear weatherstrips and dust plugs (20, 30, 51, 75) having a plurality of such weatherstrips (10-12, 31-35, 40-42, 60-62) in side-by-side relationship are providd with multidirectional flexibility so as to be useful in corners of window frames and doorways by the use of backing strips (16-18) which are made of lineal strings (19) of thermoplastic material which are criss-crossed to provide intersections and bonded at the intersection to provide an embossed surface. The piles (13-15) are attached to one side of the backing strips (16-18) leaving areas between the piles and the edges of the backing strips (16-18) in assemblies of the weatherstrips on a carrier (22) with the backing strips in edgewise-adjacent relationship. This relationship may be providede by the edges of the backing strips being in contact with each other.
