A multi-cycle refastenable contact responsive non-tacky fastener system and method of use with a field of a contact responsive fastening layer having essentially no surface tack. The fastening layer is multiply releasable and refastenable against a non-tacky target surface, and has substantially constant 90 DEG peel strength of less than about 5 kN/m when in contact with the target surface. A mounting layer comprises a field of a pressure sensitive adhesive onto which the field of the contact responsive layer is directly attached. Système de fixation à usages multiples sensible au contact non collant et méthode d'utilisation de ces systèmes avec un champ constitué par une couche de fixation sensible au contact ne présentant essentiellement aucun adhésif de surface. La couche de fixation peut être plaquée et enlevée plusieurs fois de la surface cible non adhésive et présente, au contact de cette surface, une résistance au pelage sous un angle de 90° sensiblement constante, se situant à environ 5 kN/m. Une couche de garniture renferme un champ d'adhésif sensible à la pression sur lequel le champ constitué par la couche sensible au contact est plaqué directement.
