ABSTRACT:
A two piece grommet assembly comprising an inner and an outer member wherein each member has an enlarged head at one end formed to bear upon opposite sides of a panel skin. The outer member has a recessed area intermediate its ends and the inner member has a weakened section on the shank portion which is adapted to deform into the recessed section of the outer member upon the application of opposing axial force on the two members. The weakened section of the inner member is comprised of a reduced cross-sectional thickness portion which collapses upon the application of axial force, causing the reduced thickness portion to flow inwardly into intimate contact with the recess in the outer member, locking the members together in the panel skin.
