Abstract
Slider includes a slider body with an insertion hole extending toward a lower wing from an insertion entrance on a side of an upper wing so as to form a hollow in the interconnection pillar; a pull tab mounted onto the slider body so as to be pivotable over the upper wing between a collapsed posture and an upright posture; a spring member mounted onto the slider body so as to sandwich a portion of the pull tab; and a cover attached to the slider body so as to cover at least the spring member. The spring member includes a front leg inserted into the insertion hole via the insertion entrance. The cover is configured to include a limiting portion that limits, at a position over the insertion hole, upward displacement of the front leg of the spring member.
