ABSTRACT:
A zipper intended for use in auto seat covers and the like includes a male half and a female half. The male half has a male interlocking member and a web and a tab extending substantially parallel to one another in a direction opposite to that of the male interlocking member. The web and the tab define a first channel behind the male interlocking member. In like manner, the female half has a female interlocking member and a web and a tab extending substantially parallel to one another in a direction opposite to that in which the female interlocking member faces. The web and the tab define a second channel behind the female interlocking member. The male and female halves may be joined to and interlocked with one another through compression applied in a direction substantially parallel to the webs and directed through the first and second channels. In use, a sheet material, such as fabric, leather or vinyl, is attached to the web on at least one of the male and female halves, and is joined therewith to the other of the two halves.
