ABSTRACT:
An improved mill and drill pad fastener is described which uses a base and a polymeric pad which is less susceptible to cracking when a torque is applied such as is generated when a self-tapping screw is used. The improved fastener eliminates the need for a metal-reinforcing band around the polymeric pad component by the geometric design of the base, which also eliminates the ability of the pad to twist or to be pulled from the base. Additionally, a completely polymeric mill and drill pad fastener is described.
