Abstract:
1. An edging strip formed of an elongate extruded material having top and bottom longitudinal edges, front and rear sides and first and second ends, said edging strip comprising: a first mating profile on one of said front and rear sides and extending axially from said first end to said second end; a second mating profile on said one of said front and rear sides and corresponding to said first mating profile and extending axially from said first end to said second end; said first and second mating profiles being configured so that at least one of said first and second mating profiles on separate identical edging strips are united with each other only when said edging strips are oriented so that (1) said one side on each identical edging strip opposes the corresponding said one side of the opposing edging strip and (2) said edging strips are displaced relative to one another in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axes of said edging strips and lying in a plane of the edging strips with respective said at least one of said first and second mating profiles being axially aligned to facilitate one edging strip being moved axially relative to the other edging strip to cause said at least one of said first and second mating profiles to interconnectingly mate with each other and become connected to each other and incapable of separation in a direction perpendicular to a plane containing a respective said strip.
