Abstract

A respirator harness of polymeric components and elastic straps can be made in a 2-part injection mold in a single step. The elastic straps can have superior resistance to pull-out when secured to each polymeric component by a cage that is intergral with the polymeric component, and the cage has at least one transverse rib that is fused to the elastic strap and around which the strap is stretched.
