Stitches 51.0/100 mm min. Ro
8、ws and stitches per 100 mm shall be based on an average count on a 254 mm length of carpet. 3.6.3 Foundation Materials Primary (Tufting Foundation) PET or PET/Nylon 3.6.4 Backcoating The latex shall form a continuous and uniform coating over the back of the carpet so that all pile fibers are covered
9、. The latex shall be thoroughly cured and shall maintain its ability to lock in the pile fibers in the end-item, molded carpet assembly. The latex shall thoroughly saturate the base of the pile fiber bundles to ensure adequate tuft lock. Penetration of the latex through to the face shall be controll
10、ed to provide the required resistance to abrasion and fiber loss, but the latex shall not be visible on the face of the pile fiber. 3.6.5 Needle Gauge 1.98 mm 3.6.6 Pile Height, max. 6.2 mm (ASTM D 5823) 3.7 WEIGHT, g/m2, min.
