A plastic fastener for insertion into meat for tagging purposes and then subsequently removed therefrom intact comprises an elongated unitary plastic member including a transverse bar (33), a paddle (35), and a flexible filament (37) interconnecting the transverse tag and paddle (35). The transverse bar (33) is interconnected to the filament (37) in a T-shaped configuration. In one embodiment, the portion of the transverse bar (55) constituting the trailing end thereof when the transverse bar (55) is inserted into the meat is made smaller than normal so as to minimize the likelihood of the transverse bar (55) severing from the filament (53) when the fastener is withdrawn from the body of the meat. In another embodiment, the transverse bar (61) is connected at its midpoint to the filament (65), the length of the transverse bar (61) being made smaller than normal and the filament (65) having an ovaloid cross section so as to prevent the severing of the transverse bar from the filament.

L'élément de fixation en plastique décrit peut être inséré dans une pièce de viande à des fins d'étiquetage puis en être enlevé sans se casser. L'élément de fixation comprend un élément allongé monobloc en plastique comprenant une traverse (33), une ailette (35) et un filament souple (37) qui relie la traverse à l'ailette (35). La traverse (33) est reliée en T au filament (37). Dans un mode de réalisation, la partie de la traverse (55) qui forme son extrémité postérieure lorsque la traverse (55) est insérée dans la pièce de viande est plus petite que d'habitude, de sorte que le risque qu'elle se sépare du filament (53) lorsque l'on retire l'élément de fixation de la pièce de viande soit réduit au minimum. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, la traverse (61) est reliée par son milieu au filament (65), sa longueur est plus petite que d'habitude et le filament (65) a une section transversale ovaloïde, ce qui empêche la traverse de se séparer du filament.
