Abstract
Provided is a button fastener-side die. The button fastener comprises an annular base defining an opening and a plurality of legs. The button fastener-side die includes a holding part for holding the button fastener and a correcting member for passing through the opening of the button fastener held by the holding part, a pushing member for pushing the correcting member to move in a passing direction toward passing through the opening of the button fastener, and a first spring disposed between the correcting member and the pushing member. When at least one of the legs of the button fastener is in an abnormal position, the correcting member corrects the abnormal leg(s) to be in the normal position as the correcting member is passing through the opening.
