Reducing the ribs into fusible condition without heat distortion of the remainder of the fastener strip and without heat distortion or damage of the substrate, provides a bonding layer when the fused ribs of the fastener strip are pressed together with the substrate. A simple apparatus and method are provided for effecting the bonding by fusion of the fusion ribs.
