Abstract

Lightweight, non-woven loop products (12) for hook-and-loop fastening are disclosed, as are methods for making them and end products employing them. The products are non-woven webs (16,160,302) of entangled fibers (400,402) of substantial tenacity, the fibers (400,402) forming both a sheet-form web body and hook-engageable, free-standing loops (14,406) extending from the web body. The product is stretched and stabilized to produce spaced-apart loop clusters (20) extending from a very thin web of taut fibers (402). In some embodiments, the fibers include low denier fibers and/or bicomponent fibers.
