ABSTRACT:
A fastening element for connecting a component to an apertured panel. The fastening element has a shank with a rounded end for latching engagement with a female latch member. This female latch member is rigidly connected with the component to be fastened or formed integrally therewith. The shank is adapted for limited pivotal movement in the female latch member. During removal of the component, the spherical member is caused to disengage from the female latch member prior to the shank disengaging.
