ABSTRACT:
The present invention uses hybrid ball-lock devices as an alternate for threaded fasteners. Parts of the fastener exposed directly to the plasma act as a shield for the remaining pieces of the fastener or are used as a material to actually enhance plasma characteristics. The present invention also provides consistent electrical and mechanical contact between parts, without the use of any tools.
