Abstract

A hook and loop type fastener element is provided with a foam backing which seals against a mold wall surrounding a trough which protects the element fastening surface from contact with the foam. A metal strip is positioned behind the foam and is preferably held by an open-mesh scrim secured to the foam and metal strip by hot melt adhesive strips.
