ABSTRACT:
First and second complementary snap-fastener components locally and in-situ molded to the same side of a single flexible porous substrate and at relatively short spacing from each other, such that the substrate can be folded between these complementary components to permit their selective mutual engagement and disengagement. One of these formations is a stud component and the other is a socket component, and the sizing of their engageable formations is such that a predetermined clearance characterizes a loose fit when in mutually engaged relation. The looseness of this fit bears a predetermined relation to the thickness and flexible deformability of another flexible member or tie element which is interposed between the snap-fastener elements to secure a given selected location of snap-fastener retention to the tie element. Several embodiments are described.
