When two parts of 3M Dual Lock
are pressed together, hundreds of
mushroom-shaped stems interlock
with each other. A ‘snap’ sound
announces that the fastener is
engaged. It results in excellent
holding strength (up to 12 times
stronger than hook and loop
solutions) as far as replacing
unsightly mechanical fasteners
in most applications.
The durability of Dual Lock
Fasteners allows for up to
1,000 openings and closures.
Choose between the adhesivebacked types for a wide variety
of surfaces and the plain backed
types for sewing, stapling or
ultrasonic welding.
