Abstract
A disposable diaper has an improved tape tab fastening means in which a first tape strip has a free end and a fixed end which is attached to the diaper. A transferable tape segment is provided with an adhesive coating on both faces thereof, and one face is adhesively but releasably attached to the free end. The free end is adapted to secure the diaper about an infant by adhesive attachment via the adhesive-coated face of the transferable tape segment. There is a higher peel strength between the transferable tape segment and the diaper than between the transferable tape segment and the free end to enable the free end to be detachable from and refastenable to the transferable tape segment for repositioning the diaper about the infant. A permanently attached built-in release means is also provided.
