Depending on the product group or fastener concept, fasteners with the FIDLOCK Principle are opened by sliding laterally, tilting, rotating or – in the case of a double lock – in two steps.
When the fastener is closed, the magnets are joined firmly together by attractive force and the snap functionality fixes the fastener. When moved, for example when Big Turn or Mini Turn fasteners are rotated, the polarity of the magnets is reversed, causing them to repel each other, which supports the opening procedure.
