ABSTRACT:
A closure arrangement for a polymeric bag having first and second opposing films comprises first and second opposing base strips, a post, and an L-shaped breakaway member. The first base strip has an inner and outer surface, and the outer surface of the first base strip is adapted for attachment to the first film. The second base strip has an inner and outer surface, and the outer surface of the second base strip is adapted for attachment to the second film. The post is generally perpendicular to the first base strip. The L-shaped breakaway member has first and second legs. The first leg is generally parallel to and substantially co-planar with the first base strip. The first leg has opposing inner and outer surfaces and opposing upper and lower sides extending between the inner and outer surfaces. The inner surface of the first leg is adapted for attachment to the second film. The second leg is generally perpendicular to the first leg and joined to the first leg in close proximity to one of the upper and lower sides. The post extends inwardly from the inner surface of the first base strip adjacent to the second leg. The second leg and the one of the upper and lower sides of the first leg is detachably connected to the respective post and the first base strip to form a breakaway seal.
