ABSTRACT:
A plastic construction strip in the form of a coil of overlapped convolutions has a composition comprised primarily of polyolefin material. It is between about 20 and 80 mils in thickness and has a width of at least one-half inch. It has high resistance to tearing and a tensile strength in excess of 1,000 psi, plus sufficient stiffness to support at least a 6-inch length of itself in upright, substantially vertical condition from a holding point and sufficient flexibility to be wound upon itself in overlapping convolutions as small as 1 inch internal diameter. The coil is ideally marketed as part of a dispenser package having a peripheral wall with exit and re-entry openings, and the outermost end of the coiled strip is threaded through the exit and then back into a re-entry opening so as to lie loosely within the container but be easily withdrawn therefrom. Roofing use of this strip involves fastening the strip over edge portions of roofing felt in much the same manner that wood lath has heretofore been used to hold the easily tearable roofing felt against tearing damage caused by wind uplift forces. The new plastic strip is embedded and locked within the roofing structure under the lapped finish roofing layer of shingles.
