A slide fastener has tape-reinforcing portions used for mounting a separable end stop. Each of the tape-reinforcing portions is provided at one end portion of each of a pair of fastener tapes, and includes a reinforcing piece which has one side surface adapted to be bonded to the corresponding fastener tape, and a surface layer made of a thermoplastic resin material which is provided on the other side surface of the reinforcing layer. The thermoplastic resin material which forms the surface layer is selected from those thermoplastic resin materials which have a low enough melting point to make it possible for the tape-reinforcing portion to be welded to the portion of an article to which the slide fastener is attached. |
