What makes Carpet with Attached Backing unique?
- Kanga helps absorb the punishment of foot traffic that causes your carpet’s face fiber to mat and crush. The result is that your carpet will look better for longer.
- Resistant to most household cleaning supplies. Its moisture resistance makes the clean-up of spills much easier than with conventional carpet.
- Resists mold, mildew or bacteria, making it an excellent choice for any damp or below grade installations.
- “Easy Release” outer skin layer allows for a cleaner removal with less of the crumbly mess left by conventional type cushions.
- They are incredibly light, making them easy to handle. With a few simple, inexpensive tools and double-face tape you can complete a beautiful, quality installation in no time.
What are some technical details?
![Kanga Carpet Kanga Carpet](/uploads/1/3/7/1/137140397/860858009.jpg)
- Carpet is commonly made in widths of 12 feet (3.7 m) and 15 feet (4.6 m) in North America.
- Fixed to a floor over a cushioned underlay (pad) using nails, tack strips, adhesives, or occasionally decorative metal stair rods.
- Fibres are chosen for durability, appearance, ease of manufacture, and cost.
- In production, the dominant materials are polyamides (nylons) and polypropylene with an estimated 90% of the commercial market.
Nylon
- Is one of the most common materials in the construction of carpets.
- Nylon can be printed easily and has excellent wear characteristics.
- Due it’s excellent wear-resistance, nylon is widely used in industrial and commercial carpeting.
Polypropylene
- Commonly used to construct berber carpets.
- Commercial grade styles wear very well, making them very suitable for areas with heavy foot traffic such as offices.
- Polypropylene carpets are known to have good stain resistance, but not against oil-based agents.
Polyester
- The polyester known as “PET” is used in carpet manufacturing for both spun and filament constructions.
- When the price of raw materials for many types of carpet rose in the early 2000s, polyester became more competitive.
- Has good physical properties and is inherently stain-resistant because it is hydrophobic.
- A disadvantage is it tends to crush or mat down easily. It is typically used in mid- to low-priced carpeting.
- Another polyester, “PTT”, also called Sorona or 3GT (Dupont) or Corterra (Shell), is a variant of PET. These carpet fibers have resiliency comparable to nylon.
Acrylic
- A synthetic material first created by the Dupont Corporation in 1941 but has gone through various changes since it was first introduced.
- In the past, acrylic carpet used to fuzz or “pill” easily. This happened when the fibres degraded over time and short strands broke away with contact or friction.
- New types of acrylics have been developed to alleviate some of these problems.
- Acrylic is colourfast, washable, and has the feel and appearance of wool, making it a good rug fabric.

INSTALL Your Own Carpet?
Absolutely – You can do-it-yourself with a few simple tools and instructions.
You can easily install KangaBACK and KangaHYDE attached cushion carpets yourself. Attached cushions are incredibly light, making them easy to handle. With a few simple, inexpensive tools (KangaTOOLS®recommended) and double-faced KangaTape®, you can complete a beautiful, quality installation in no time. (Professional installers may choose to install KangaBACK and KangaHYDE using a good multi-purpose adhesive.)
The tools you will need are: a KangaTOOLS utility knife with extra blades, a pry bar, a stiff putty knife, a measuring tape, a hammer and scissors. Other tools will be needed if you have to make a seam. They are a string chalk line and straight edge or a KangaTOOLS carpet cutter. To make a proper seam, a seam sealer should be used and can be purchased at any carpet supply shop, or at home improvement or do-it-yourself stores that sell carpet.
If you wish to install your new carpet yourself, measure the room for which it is intended before you buy the carpet. Be sure to measure to the center of doorways and to the back of closets.
Installation With KangaTape or Double-Faced Carpet Tape
It’s a good idea to measure the room again, then pre-cut the carpet 4″ to 6″ larger than the room size.
NOTE: If you have to make a seam, do it first! (See making seams below)

Installation with Staples
Staples can be used instead of tape. Use heavy duty staples a minimum of 1/2″ long. Do not use more staples than necessary to hold the carpet down securely. On hardwood, it may be necessary to tap the staple with a small hammer to drive it in fully. Do this immediately after shooting each staple.
Installation with Multi-Purpose Adhesives
Full Spread Application: Any good multi-purpose adhesive may be used with these attached cushion carpets. After positioning the carpet in the room, fold one-half of the carpet back over itself. Following the manufacturer’s instructions, apply the adhesive to the floor. After proper “tack time” lay the carpet into the adhesive and then do the other half of the room. Trim the carpet as mentioned in step #5.
Well it depends. There are many different types of 2 pair combinations. Assuming we are playing Texas Holdem at showdown with the flop, turn, and river out, there are many possibilities. Situation 1: 2 Pair Counterfeited Hero: KQ Villain: AA Board. You have two pair, kings and sevens. Your opponent has two pair, queens and sevens. Your hand is best, so you win the pot. Second example, using the same board cards but different hole cards. Poker for two people. A - If two or more players have five cards of the same suit, the player with the strongest cards wins. For example - if Player A is holding 10 ♥ Q ♥, player B is holding 4 ♣and 6♥ and the board shows 3♥7♥5♥9♥J♦, player A with Q♥10♥9♥7♥5♥ wins over player B with 9♥7♥6♥5♥3♥. In Hold’em, a Two Pair hand is one of the most common winning hands. The expression “Two Pair” should immediately have you thinking about pairs of cards in the same denomination or rank. Simply put, it's two pairs of equally ranked cards.
Perimeter Spread Application: In perimeter spread applications only a 9″ to 12″ border of adhesive is required around the room, along with a diagonal path from corner to corner of the room, forming an “X”. This procedure also requires doing one-half of the room at a time. Follow adhesive manufacturer’s instructions.
Carpet With Built In Padding
Making Seams
On all seams, you will need to position the second piece of carpet so that it runs in the same direction as the first. This is very important. When you have determined how the two pieces of carpet will lie in the room, you will want to start by getting the straightest edge possible on the piece you will cut first. Don’t forget seam sealer. Apply a bead of seam sealer along one edge of the attached cushion. A plastic bottle with a long thin neck works best.
Complete the seam by butting both sections of the carpet together while the seam sealer is still wet, allowing the carpet and cushion to make contact with the tape and seam sealer at the same time. Be sure to keep carpet fiber up and away from the seam sealer. (Professional installers may use hot melt seaming tape on KangaBACK and KangaHYDE. The seaming iron will not harm or melt the cushion.)
Finishing Your Installation
Smears of adhesive on the carpet surface should be cleaned with water and a clean cloth if cleaning is done while adhesive is still wet. If adhesive has dried, follow manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning.
If the edge of the carpeting at a doorway must be butted up against carpeting in the next room or hall, follow the same procedure for seaming described above. If there is sufficient carpet, most installers prefer to butt the two pieces in the section directly under the door when the door is closed, making a neater looking installation from both sides. You may also wish to use metal binding strips found at any hardware store or home center.
