Abstract:

The application of flexible magnetic rubber seals to slide fasteners to form pressure tight closures was investigated. Several configurations were fabricated using flexible permanent magnet strips of neoprene rubber loaded with barium ferrite. The final and most successful design utilized magnetic rubber blocks cemented to the back of a flexible rubber strip for the inner seal.
