An applicator for dispensing seaming adhesive onto the edges of pieces of adjacent floor-covering material is provided. The applicator tip can include, from top to bottom, a leg portion, a relatively narrow ankle portion and a foot portion. The body can connect with a seaming adhesive dispensing device to allow seaming adhesive to flow into a passageway in the body. The ankle portion includes an orifice extending through the applicator tip from side-to-side and intersects with the passageway so that seaming adhesive can flow through the orifice. The foot portion includes a pair of opposing wedges extending sideways from the body. The applicator tip can be drawn along a line of abutment between adjacent pieces of floor-covering material. The ankle portion can further include a glue channel that directs the edges of the floor-covering material towards the orifice so that seaming adhesive can be dispensed along the edges and along the bottom surfaces of the edges.

A seaming tape for joining pieces of floor-covering together, such as carpet or resilient floor covering material, and a method for using the same to join adjacent pieces of planar material is provided. The seaming tape can include an upper mesh tape portion and a lower blocking tape portion that is narrower in width than the mesh tape portion. The mesh tape portion can further include a pressure-sensitive adhesive to hold the blocking tape portion in position.

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Applicator tools for joining seams in floor and wall coverings are provided. The seams created by the tools disclosed are stronger, of better appearance, and provide a longer seam life. The applicator tools disclosed include means to engage a container of sealant, the tool having a foot at one end, with a leg portion above the foot of the relatively narrow cross-section, whereby the foot may be passed under the edges of the materials being joined. A conduit communicates with the sealant container, and with openings in or near the foot, to ensure effective sealant application to the materials being joined, both under the edges of the material, and on the edges of the material itself.
