Abstract

The invention relates to an arrangement in a loop fitting or locking tongue for retractor-type safety belts, forming a slot (13) for the passage of the belt strap and reorientation of the path of the strap over an edge of the slot. The loop fitting or locking tongue is coated with a layer (11) of plastic material, and an edge lining (14) of another plastic material than said plastic layer and having low-friction properties is mounted as a separate element on said edge. The edge lining is let into the surface of the plastic layer, and hook-shaped marginal portions (15) of the lining engage shoulders (16) formed by the plastic layer at the front and rear sides of the loop fitting or locking tongue.
