Abstract
A holding element 1, for fastening a component 18 to a carrier 4 having an opening 3, includes an insertion piece 2 made of a soft elastic plastics material, and a thrust part 11 made of a rigid plastics material. The insertion piece 2 is formed with a bevelled or cone shaped thrust face 12, which is held in interfacing engagement with a complimentarily bevelled or conically shaped thrust face 7 of the thrust part 11 by elastically deformable ribs 13 and 14. When a screw 15 is inserted through a longitudinal bore 8 of the insertion piece 2 and into an axially aligned bore 10 of the thrust part 11, and is tightened, the insertion piece is compressed to expand radially to anchor the holding element 1 within the opening 3 of the carrier 4.
