Abstract
The object of the invention is to make it possible to fill connecting fasteners of various thicknesses in a single kind of fastener magazine. A connecting fastener is such that the thickness of a connecting band () is increased or decreased according to the stem diameter of a screw (), whereby the width of the connecting fastener () as seen in the direction of travel thereof is made constant, and the connecting band () is brought into engagement with a longitudinal guide groove () formed in the fastener passageway of the fastener magazine () of a screw fastening machine. This makes it possible to stably hold the connecting fasteners () of various stem diameters at a given height, thus improving the versatility of the fastener magazine.
