INSERT MOLD-IN

摘要

A fastener of the hook and loop type intended to be incorporated into plasti c articles by plastic molding processes is formed of a known separable fastener member (1) having a base member and a plurality of engaging elements upstanding from one surface thereof. A covering (7) which intimately surrounds the individua l engaging elements (2) protects the elements when exposed to the harsh environment of a molding process. This protecting covering is removable from the fastener after the molding process to expose the engaging elements without substantially destroying the performance thereof.
