Separable end stop comprises a retaining member and an insert member both made of synthetic resin, mounted on the lower ends of the fastener stringers, and adapted to come into and out of engagement with each other in the general plane of a slide fastener. The retaining member and the insert member have a first and a second rotary plate integrally provided on their respective lower ends and adapted for mutual rotation relative to each other to thus swing the retaining member and the insert member relative to each other. The first and second plates have a first and a second magnetic element provided thereon, respectively, for magnetically putting the rotation plates into proper positions for the mutual rotation upon each other.
