Фастекс LB-F2 25, 30, 38
Modern textile products require not only reliable but also extremely compact hardware. This is especially true for urban clothing, footwear, sports accessories, backpacks, and lightweight camping gear, where every millimeter of thickness matters. The LB F2 thin fastener was developed by YKK specifically for such applications. With its ultra-thin profile, convenient front button, and high strength, this model allows for the creation of ergonomic products with a modern design. The compact design makes the fastener virtually invisible, and the reliable locking mechanism ensures long-lasting and safe operation, even under intensive use.
What is the LB F2 thin fastener?
The LB F2 thin fastener is a Front Release Buckle—a plastic fastener with a front opening. Its main feature is its exceptionally thin frame. Compared to many traditional plastic fastex fasteners, this clasp takes up significantly less space and is better suited for items where compactness and a neat appearance are important.
Opening is accomplished by pressing a small central button located on the front of the case. This solution makes operation simple and intuitive, allowing you to quickly unfasten the product with one hand.
The model is available for belt widths of 25, 30, and 38 mm, allowing it to be used on both lightweight accessories and larger items.

How it works LB F2 Fastener
The key feature of the slim LB F2 fastener is its front-opening mechanism.
After the two halves are joined, an internal latch securely holds the plug inside the housing. The design ensures the clasp remains securely in place even under constant load.
To open, simply press the central button. The latch then releases the plug, and the halves of the clasp easily separate.
Despite the minimal thickness of the housing, the mechanism is highly reliable and designed for a large number of opening and closing cycles. Thanks to the precise geometry of the components, the connection remains stable, and the clasp operates smoothly throughout its entire service life.
Design Features
One of the key features of the LB F2 is its slim body.
The design was developed specifically for applications where conventional plastic clasps would be too bulky. Thanks to its reduced thickness, the model barely protrudes above the surface of the product and has a significantly neater appearance.
The body is made of polyacetal (POM)—a modern engineering material with high mechanical strength and resistance to impact, abrasion, moisture, and temperature fluctuations. This ensures stable operation of the fastener even under intensive use.
An additional advantage is the ability to order the central button in a variety of colors, facilitating the integration of the hardware into the product’s corporate design.
