ABSTRACT:
A knit slide fastener of the type including a warp-knit fastener tape having a ground structure composed of chain stitches, and a row of continuous coupling elements knit into and along an element-supporting portion of one longitudinal edge portion of the fastener tape as the fastener tape is knit, wherein binding chain stitches are knit into the element-supporting portion to secure the row of coupling elements to the longitudinal tape edge portion, the binding chain stitches having sinker loops urging pairs of legs of the coupling elements toward the element-supporting portion, and needle loops intertwined with needle loops of the chain stitches of the ground structure. With this arrangement, the longitudinal tape edge portion has a knit structure which is relatively tight and substantially non-stretchable in the longitudinal direction. The row of coupling elements attached to such tight and longitudinally non-stretchable longitudinal tape edge portion is highly stable in position and resistant to deformation.
