ABSTRACT:
A reclosable fastener having first members on a first side of the separation of an envelope, package, box or the like caused by the removal of a tear strip. In a first embodiment, a base is connected by a tether to a movable element. A similar base is placed on the other side. When the movable element is caused to engage the second base the tether acts to seal the separation. In a second embodiment, individual non-connected bases are set transverse to the separation. A series of locking members joined to form a band are connected to the other side of the separation by adhesive materials. The band is positioned across the separation to close it and the locking members are joined to the non-connected bases. As many non-connected bases and locking members as needed to close a particular separation can be used.
