Abstract:
1. A pre-cut fibrous insulation blanket for insulating cavities of different widths, comprising: an elongated resilient fibrous insulation blanket; the fibrous insulation blanket having a length, a width and a thickness; the fibrous insulation blanket having a first major surface and a second major surface which each extend for the length and width of the fibrous insulation blanket; the fibrous insulation blanket having cut means spaced inwardly from both lateral edges of the fibrous insulation blanket and extending for the length of the fibrous insulation blanket; the cut means dividing the fibrous insulation blanket into fibrous insulation sections and leaving portions of the fibrous insulation blanket as separable connectors intermediate and joining adjacent sections of the fibrous insulation sections; the cut means being closed due to the resilience of the fibrous insulation blanket; the separable connectors holding together adjacent sections of the fibrous insulation blanket for handling and being separable by hand whereby the fibrous insulation blanket can be handled as a unit for insulating a cavity having a width about equal to the width of the pre-cut fibrous insulation blanket or easily separated by hand into sections at the cut means for insulating a cavity having a width less than the width of the pre-cut fibrous insulation blanket.
