Stop member includes: a first member including a first insert to be inserted into a slider via a rear mouth of the slider, and a first base positioned rearward of the first insert; and a second member including a second insert to be inserted into the slider via a slit extending between the rear mouth and a front mouth of the slider, and a second base to be overlaid onto the first base. The first and second bases are configured to effect magnetic attraction and/or repulsion between the first and second bases when the first and second bases are overlaid. The second base rotates relative to the first base in accordance with the magnetic attraction and/or repulsion to allow the second insert to pivot toward the slit.

Stopper and slide fastener comprising same

There is provided a slide fastener with a separable stop including a retainer pin and a separable pin. The separable pin has a projection configured to be engaged with a fastener element. The slider includes a raised portion. For example, the raised portion extends on a lower surface of the upper plate rearward from a periphery of the guide post and is raised from the lower surface of the upper plate toward the lower plate. The raised portion of the slider and the separable pin have respective contact portions configured to come in contact with each other in a moving direction of the slider. At least one of the contact portion of the raised portion of the slider and the contact portion of the separable pin is provided with an intersecting portion obliquely intersecting with the moving direction of the slider.
