ABSTRACT:
A system for connecting plastic components wherein a plastic component includes a hollow female portion with a cavity having an inner surface. The system includes a hollow male portion with an inner cavity having an inner surface and at least two spaced apart sections, each spaced apart section having an opening through the section, the opening extending from the inner cavity to an external surface on the spaced apart sections. A resilient strip with at least one end adapted for frictional engagement with the inner surface of the hollow female portion, the end of the strip adapted for frictional engagement also being adapted for protrusion through the aperture in the spaced apart section the male portion, so that the end of the resilient strip adapted for providing frictional engagement extends through the opening and past the external surface on the spaced apart section the male section, so that when the spaced apart sections of said hollow male portion is inserted into the cavity of the female portion the end adapted for frictional engagement engages the inner surface of the hollow female portion to prevent separation of the parts.
