PRESSURE-SENSITIVE ADHESIVE FASTENER AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME

摘要

A pressure-sensitive adhesive fastener (20) having a textured fastening surface (22) so as to have a relatively high shear resistance and a desired peel resistance. The pressure-sensitive adhesive fastener comprises a backing web (24) having bulbous surface aberrations (26) projecting from a first surface of the backing web (24) and a layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive (28) coated over and bonded to at least a portion of the surface of the bulbous surface aberrations of the backing web. The present invention also relates to a fastening system using the pressure-sensitive adhesive fastener of the present invention.
