Abstract

A method for producing a touch-and-close fastener part includes producing a base structure from a thread system having individual loops which are at least partially of a polyamide or polyester plastics material. At least a portion of the loops are cut to form two stem-like loop ends. The loop ends are heated at a predeterminable temperature and for a predeterminable heating time until a head shape is produced as a thickening at the respective loop end under the surface tension of the plastics material. The head shape is formed with a convex upper side which, at the point of a linear transition, merges into a concave interlocking surface which is seamlessly transferred into the adjoining stem-like loop end for an interlocking element.
