NICHT ABSCHLEIFENDE MECHANISCHE BEFESTIGUNGSANORDNUNG UND DAS VERFAHREN UM DIESE HERZUSTELLEN

摘要

The invention is a hook fastening material for use with a complementary loop fastening material, which hook fastening material has from about 1600 to about 2500 prongs per square inch and is substantially non-abrasive and non-irritating to human skin. In one embodiment the hook fastening material has prongs with an engaging means at an angle of about 90 DEG to about 160 DEG relative to the extension of the perpendicular to the plane of the substrate. In another embodiment the hook fastening material is formed on a compressible substrate. In still another embodiment the hook fastening material has prongs made of an ethylene vinyl acetate based polymer or a polyethylene based polymer. Methods for making such hook fastening materials and articles of use are also disclosed.
