Abstract
A heat bond seaming tape has a base formed of a sheet of paper or a paper-like material and an overlying strip of an open mesh material. A plurality of transversely spaced, longitudinally extending beads of a hot melt thermoplastic adhesive material is placed on a top surface of the mesh for adhering the tape to the backs of adjacent carpet edges. A strip of a polyolefin such as a semi-rigid high density polyethylene material is sandwiched between the base sheet and the strip of open mesh material and extends longitudinally along the center of the strip and extends transversely across the carpet seam to prevent seam buckling. The base sheet and reinforcing strip can be extruded as an integral one piece member of the high density polyethylene prior to being joined with the mesh and hot melt adhesive.
