ABSTRACT:
A surface fastener including a woven fabric having a number of interlocking elements projecting from one surface of said woven fabric, at least two round cords disposed adjacent to the interlocking elements and woven at regular intervals as the woven fabric are woven in such a condition that the round cords are longitudinally tensed and have a smaller height than the interlocking elements and are disposed in an exposed condition on the surface of the woven fabric. And flat attachment portions devoid of interlocking elements are disposed in juxtaposition with the round cords on outer sides of the round cords opposite to the interlocking elements. A number of round cords may be disposed on the woven fabric. The thus woven round cords are made rigid and highly resistant to compression or crush. With the round cords thus provided, the interlocking elements can provide a great fastening force over a prolonged period of use. By virtue of the flat attachment portion, the surface fastener can be readily attached by sewing to an article.
