It is an object to provide a fastening element with less generation of jamming at the time of operation. Because a fastening element comprises a plurality of a unit fastening element arranged adjacently, the unit fastening element comprising a filament section, an inserting head section equipped with a suitable engagement section located at one end of the filament section, and a socket section equipped with a hole for irreversibly passing the inserting head section located at the other end of the filament section, the fastening element characterized in that a plurality of the socket sections or their vicinities arranged adjacent to each other are temporarily fixed to the connection bar section individually installed, respectively, and a plurality of optional filament sections adjacent to each other are separably fixed temporarily, jamming is less generated when the operator couples the fastening element by the coupler gun.
A fastening element comprising a plurality of a unit fastening element arranged adjacently and in parallelism with each other, each of said unit fastening element comprising a filament section, an inserting head section equipped with a suitable engagement section located at one end of the filament section, and a socket section equipped with a hole for irreversibly passing the inserting head section, located at the other end of the filament section, said fastening element characterized in that a plurality of said socket sections or their vicinities each being adjacently arranged to each other and a plurality of said inserting head sections or their vicinities each being adjacently arranged to each other, are temporarily and individually connected to each one of connection bars, respectively, and further at least parts of each one of a selected plurality of said filament sections adjacently arranged to each other, are separably and temporarily connected to each other.
