Abstract
A slide fastener with a separable bottom end stop according to the invention, includes: an insert member fixed to an end of one element row, and a pivot support member fixed to an end of the other element row. The insert member includes an insert plate portion fixed to the fastener tape, and a pivot shaft portion disposed on the insert plate portion. The pivot support member includes a box pin portion that extends from an end of the element row, a box portion of a nearly J shape, a protrusion that extends from the box pin portion, and a flat plate-like support portion that extends from the box portion. As a result, even if a separable bottom end stop receives lateral pulling force or pushing-up force in the coupling state of the element rows, it is possible to prevent the element rows from being decoupled.
