Abstract
A staggered cut pile tufting machine has a modular hook assembly having long blade hooks and short blade hooks molded in separate body members. The body members have complementary reference surfaces adapted to cooperatively mate and be secured together. One of the body members includes slots between the hooks carried therein for receiving a portion of the hooks of the other body member when assembled.
