#Some say that closing a velcro is only permitted for a temporary use and not a permanent one but some are lenient. <ref>Torat Hamelachot v. 4 p. 149 quotes Rav Vosner and Rav Kerelitz that velcro isn't tofer. But he cites that Rav Kerelitz, Mechazeh Eliyahu, and Nishmat Shabbat 4:214 that it is only permitted to use velcro for temoprary uses but not permanent ones. Mechezah Eliyahu said that it is permitted even if it is connected for more than 7 days but not permanently. However, Peninei Halacha (Harchavot Shabbat p. 307) writes that it is permitted to close a velcro tab on a diaper even for a long time and isn't considered tofer. Ayil Meshulash Koshair 8:15 agrees.</ref> | #Some say that closing a velcro is only permitted for a temporary use and not a permanent one but some are lenient. <ref>Torat Hamelachot v. 4 p. 149 quotes Rav Vosner and Rav Kerelitz that velcro isn't tofer.
