Legs of a pair of legs are provided with core-thread-pressing surfaces that slant gradually to approach one another as being away from the stopping surfaces. Each core-thread-pressing surface extends from the stopping surface to the base end of the leg. A thickness of each leg in a thickness direction of the fastener tape gradually increases from the free end toward the base end of the leg in accordance with at least the slanting of the core-thread-pressing surface.

Metallic element and slide fastener

Provided is an aluminum alloy fastening member including a chemical conversion coating having a novel composition as a colored coating, and a method for producing the aluminum alloy fastening member. The aluminum alloy fastening member includes a chemical conversion coating containing tellurium as a component element.
