ABSTRACT:
An improved reusable fastener for closing flexible bags and the like. The fastener utilizes a conventional twist tie or the like adhered to a piece of tape having a pressure-sensitive adhering surface. The twist tie has two non-metallic sides, with a small diameter wire laminated or bonded therebetween. The width of the tie is less than the width of the tape, thereby leaving a portion of the pressure-sensitive adhering surface exposed. To use the fastener, the user closes the throat of the bag and places the fastener around the throat. The user presses the fastener together, resulting in the pressure-sensitive surface on the tape adhering to itself as the wire deforms. This keeps the throat of the bag closed. The bag will remain closed until the user pulls the ends of the tape apart. No twisting or untwisting of the ends of the twist tie is necessary.
