Abstract
An L-shaped extruded edge-protector section for the strapping of articles, stacks or the like, has along the inner or outer surfaces of the respective flanges, respective adhesive strips while the opposite surfaces having longitudinal recesses so that when the edge-protectors are stacked, the adhesive strips are received with clearance in the recesses of adjacent edge-protectors. The edge-protectors when stacked thus do not adhere to one another even though masking strips are not provided for the adhesive strips.
Claims4
An edge protector adapted to be interposed between a strap and an article having an edge to be protected, said edge protector comprising:
- an elongated body of a generally L-shaped cross section composed at least in part of extruded thermoplastic synthetic resin and having a pair of flanges angularly adjoining at a junction and formed with respective longitudinal edges, said body having inner and outer surfaces;
- and
- a pressure-adhering adhesive strip on one of said surfaces between said longitudinal edges and extending generally along a longitudinal dimension of said body, said body being formed in the other of said surfaces with a longitudinally extending recess located with respect to said strip such that, upon stacking of the edge protector with other identical, edge protector a said adhesive strip of one of the stacked edge protectors will lie in a said recess of another of the stacked edge protectors without contact with the respective body thereof, the recess being formed in the inner surface of the respective body and the respective adhesive strip being provided on the outer surface of the respective body.
An edge protector adapted to be interposed between a strap and an article having an edge to be protected, said edge protector comprising:
- an elongated body of a generally L-shaped cross section composed at least in part of extruded thermoplastic synthetic resin and having a pair of flanges angularly adjoining at a junction and formed with respective longitudinal edges, said body having inner and outer surfaces;
- and
- a pressure-adhering adhesive strip on one of said surfaces between said longitudinal edges and extending generally along a longitudinal dimension of said body, said body being formed in the other of said surfaces with a longitudinally extending recess located with respect to said strip such that, upon stacking of the edge protector with other identical, edge protector a said adhesive strip of one of the stacked edge protector a said adhesive strip of one of the stacked edge protectors will lie in a said recess of another of the stacked edge protectors without contact with the respective body thereof, each of said flanges having an inner and outer surface, a respective adhesive strip being applied to the inner surface of each flange of the respective body while the outer surface of each flange has a respective recess located with respect to the adhesive strip of the respective flange so that said adhesive strips of both flanges of a respective stacked edge protector lie in the two recesses of the other stacked edge protector without contact with the respective body thereof.
