Abstract
An attachable retainer for mounting on the L-shaped catch assembly of flexible tape is provided. The attachable retainer provides a pear-shaped base plate having peripheral sidewalls defining a lower holding area for receiving flimsy workpieces that would not afford sufficient resistance needed to extend the flexible tape relative to its housing. A curved opening in the base plate receives the catch assembly, while two prongs and a horizontal brace over the curved opening and a tongue element just below the curved opening removably secure the catch assembly. A plurality of teeth provided by the sidewalls enable the attachment retainer to be used on conventional and unconventional workpieces without the need to remove the attachable retainer.
