Abstract
A buckle part or fitting to be attached to a piece of fabric includes first and second parts adapted to be held in position by at least one post passing through the fabric, one of said parts being provided with a recess and the other part having a raised portion of somewhat smaller peripheral size than the recess, so the fabric will be compressed into the recess when the two parts are clamped together. The two parts are made of a material having high frictional properties, whereby the posts are self locking in their mating bores; in fittings subjected to heavy wear, an extra post adapted to be upset in its bore may be provided as a safety measure.
