PURPOSE: Provided is an air/water-tight slide fastener which keeps air/water-tight and durable for a long period of time, and which does not suffer from the peeled-off phenomenon, even when it is forcibly folded longitudinally thereof. CONSTITUTION: The air/water-tight slide fastener(10) comprises a pair of fastener stringers(17), a slider(13) and an end stop. Each fastener stringer includes an air/water-tight tape(11) and a plurality of fastener elements(12) mounted on one longitudinal edge thereof. Each fastener element includes a coupling element(15) having a shaft(15a) and a coupling head(15b), and a substantially U-shaped clamping element(16). The shaft is wrapped by the longitudinal edge of the tape. The fastener tapes are mounted along the opposed edges of the opening on the rear side of a article(30). The slider is reciprocally movable along the fastener elements around the clamping elements. The end stop is integrally mounted on one end of the fastener stringers to stop the movement of the slider. The end stop includes a block(14a) and a flange portion(14b). The part of the flange portion is extensive enough to be integrally fixed to the opening edges(30a) of the article. |
