RELATIVE STIFFNESS FASTENERS

A fastening member (100) has an inboard end (102) and an outboard end (104) and a panel region (110), an end region (120), and a fastening element (116). The panel region (110) has a proximal edge and a distal edge. The panel region (110) is disposed adjacent to the inboard end (102) and is more ext...

More Information
Summary:A fastening member (100) has an inboard end (102) and an outboard end (104) and a panel region (110), an end region (120), and a fastening element (116). The panel region (110) has a proximal edge and a distal edge. The panel region (110) is disposed adjacent to the inboard end (102) and is more extensible than the end region (120). The end region (120) is disposed adjacent to the outboard end (104). The end region (120) has a fastening element zone (114) having a first stiffness and an intermediate zone (112) having a second stiffness. The first stiffness is greater than the second stiffness. The intermediate zone (112) is disposed between the fastening element zone (114) and the panel region (110) adjacent to the distal edge. The fastening element (116) is disposed in the end region (120) and defines the fastening element zone (114).
