Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim
149 words
An elongated planar strip of flexible plastic material having a plurality of capped pegs integrally formed therewith, said pegs being spaced at regular intervals along the longitudinal axis of said strip, said pegs being spaced on predetermined centers along said axis, said pegs being insertable into holes for closing said holes, said holes being spaced in correspondence to the spacing of said pegs, said caps lying against the openings of said holes when said pegs are inserted in said holes, each of said caps having circular breaking lines along the entire circumference thereof for manually severing said caps from said strip after insertion of said pegs into said holes, said caps having convex heads extending out of the plane of said strip, said breaking lines weakening the adherence of said caps to said strip so that said caps are severable from said strip by application of unaided manual force.
