Introduction

Hook and Looping Fastening Tape consists of two types of polyamide tape (nylon 66), one of which is called hook, which is convered by hundreds of tiny hooks (approximately 50 units per cm2), and another called loop which is formed by hundreds of tiny loops (also appromimately 50 units per cm2). The Hook and Loop Fastening Tapes are closed together by touch and can be easily reopened by a separating or peeling action. On closing, the hooks on one tape penetrate the loops on the other, thus creating an adjustable, versatile and secure closure. The stronger the pressure applied, the greater the closing action. Hook and Loop Fatening Tape may not necessarily be an inexpensive product, but more frequently specialized products with characteristics engineered into them are produced to meet specific end-use objectives.
