Does anyone know the name of this type of fastener? It's different from a hook and loop (velcro brand) type.

Both sides have these little balls on the end and pressing them together makes the two pieces "stick".

Not sure if this is much help, but Peavey (the musical instrument and speaker manufacturer) used a similar device in the past to hold their speaker grills on. They called them "grill snaps"
 
So it's not Dual Lock. I sent the pic to 3M. The Dual Lock has a mushroom shaped head whereas this original is ball shaped. Plus Dual Lock isn't available in the hexagon shape. So close but not exact. Quite possible it's no longer available, or need to keep poking around.
