Abstract
A pair of assembled slide fastener stringers each have a stringer tape and a row of interlocking elements mounted on and along one edge of the stringer tape. A plurality of sliders are slidably mounted on the rows of interlocking elements, each slider having a head at which the element rows go into and out of the slider in the uncoupled state, and a rear at which the element rows go into and out of the slider in the coupled state. A plurality of bottom end stops are also slidably mounted on the element rows, each bottom end stop having a slider-like structure comprising a head at which the element rows go into and out of the bottom end stop in the uncoupled state, and a rear at which the element rows go into and out of the bottom end stop in the coupled state. The sliders alternate with the bottom end stops and have their heads directed in one direction and toward the heads of the bottom end stops. Alternatively, the sliders are provided in pairs lying head-to-head, and the bottom end stops are also in pairs lying head-to-head, the slider pairs alternating with the end stop pairs.
