An improved fastener assembly for reclosable plastic containers is provided. The assembly includes a male closure element having a male base member which is elastically deformable and resilient and a barb element extending substantially perpendicularly therefrom. A female closure element has a base with a substantially C-shaped track disposed thereon. The C-shaped track is constructed and arranged for selective engagement with the male closure element. The female base member is also elastically deformable and resilient. At least one of the base members has a curved exterior surface which deforms when sealing pressure is applied, thereby facilitating sealing of the fastener assembly to reclosable plastic bags by correcting for variations in pressure, temperature, and angle of the sealing bars.
