Abstract:
A self-engaging fastener has a flexible base sheet and an array of discrete fastener elements projecting from a broad side of the base sheet. Each fastener element has a stem extending from the base sheet and a head at a distal end of the stem, the head overhanging the base sheet on multiple sides of the stem. The heads of the discrete fastener elements are arranged in a pattern of hexagonal groupings of fastener element heads bordering central regions void of fastener element heads, with each fastener element head spaced from edges of the array being part of three adjacent groupings. The product features a particularly high separation resistance for the area of the product covered by the heads.

Claim (Index 17):
A fastener comprising:\n a flexible base sheet; and an array of discrete fastener elements projecting from a broad side of the base sheet, each fastener element comprising a stem extending from the base sheet and a head at a distal end of the stem, the head overhanging the base sheet on multiple sides of the stem; wherein the ratio of Self-Engaged Lift Resistance to Head Coverage is greater than 45 N/cm 2 .
