Abstract
A fastener with tape has fastening members of synthetic resin molded integrally and firmly on front and rear surfaces of the tape so as to enclose an entire peripheral portion of a mounting hole of the tape having at least a mounting hole. The fastening members are made of synthetic resin material to which fine inorganic filler is added. The stiffness and the elasticity of the fastening members change depending on the kind and the addition amount of the inorganic filler. Therefore, when even if the melting point of the resin material for use is high so that a produced fastener can bear high temperature treatment but the stiffness and elasticity thereof are low, it is possible to provide a fastener with tape capable of not only bearing high temperature treatment but also having predetermined stiffness and elasticity, and also having an excellent wear resistance, by adjusting an amount of the inorganic filler to be added to the synthetic resin material
