I ordered this set of 25 hook and loop straps for a project. and was shocked to find that the product was one piece of velcro that was perforated every 12 inches. This is definitely NOT what is shown in the picture which shows a metal buckle and velcro sewn to some fabric. My application for this project required a strong 12 inch cloth/cloth strap that held securely - I saw the pictured strap at a retail store and knew I needed this buckle on the strap so I could tighten it and then fold back the Velcro. A curved hook and loop fastener is always more secure than a straight attachment. Very disappointing.
