ABSTRACT A fastener e.g. for attaching tags to merchandise formed by an elongated member, such as a filamentary string, is attached to a bidirectional locking housing with longitudinally opposed openings. The elongated member is inserted into either of the opposed openings of the housing, where it is engaged and locked in place by one of two longitudinally extending blocking vanes which are deflectable by said insertion laterally of the said axis and thereafter tending to return to its original position to hold the free end in the channel. The vanes, while being reliable and relatively easily deflected to permit passage of the member, will be strong in a direction required to resist withdrawal of the member since this direction will be along the length of the vane. A guiding instrumentality (e.g. a ramp) is associated with each vane for guiding the free end into the housing. The fastener is mechanically simple; the end of the elongated member being easily insertable in either end of the housing without special directions necessary for the user. The free end of the elongated member is strong yet not so large as to damage merchandise to which it is attached.
