Flexible composite fasteners made of polyvinyl chloride or other resilient synthetic material designed for joining together various materials which may vary slightly in thickness during use. Fasteners easily installed and removed by hand and maintain approximately same tension in bonding materials together, regardless of subsequent movements of materials. Design and choice of material of new fasteners enables variety of uses, as book binders, hole sealers, insulating fasteners for electronic circuitry, or break-away energy-absorbing fasteners for vehicles in crashes.
