Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
123 words
A slide fastener installation, the combination comprising a pair of carrier tapes having outer edges and having inner edges adjacent each other, a plurality of interlocking elements on each inner edge and being adapted for movement by a slider member which causes opening and closing of interlocking elements on one edge relative to the interlocking elements on the other edge, a layer of heat bondable adhesive on each of said tapes, a layer of water soluble, liquid activated adhesive on each of said layers of heat bondable adhesive whereby said slide fastener can be temporarily held in place on an article by moistening the layers of liquid activated adhesive on said tapes prior to permanent installation as by heating the heat bondable adhesive.
