ABSTRACT:
An improved fastening device is disclosed for securing a longitudinally extending body member within an aperture of a workpiece. The fastening device is designed to accept resilient material after it is inserted within the workpiece. In one alternative embodiment the inserted resilient material acts in cooperation with the longitudinally extending body member to lock the device in place and to provide a support structure to the workpiece. In another alternative embodiment, the body member, after injection by the resilient material, assumes the shape of the workpiece aperture. In another alternative embodiment, structure fibers are added and held to the fastening device by the inserted resilient material.
