The female interlocking element is formed from two extending arms which are sufficiently spaced so as to receive the male interlocking element while maintaining an open space therebetween in order to accommodate powdered or granular products between the interlocking profiles. The first and second interlocking profiles further include complementary fulcrum elements to allow the slider walls to pivot the interlocking profiles into and out of engagement. The slider further includes interior surfaces which engage retaining shoulders of the interlocking profiles to displace the interlocking profiles with respect to one another.
