Since synthetic Velcro often comes undone and usually isn’t that strong, these steel pads were created for even the use car assemblage and hanging façades on buildings.
Just imagine when the day comes when all you have to do is unfasten the steel Velcro on a car, instead of pulling apart pieces with complicated tools.
