ABSTRACT:
A pin grommet includes a male member that has a head and a shaft that extends integrally from the head, and a female member that has a flange in which a through hole is formed for insertion of the shaft, and a plurality of resilient members around the through hole extending from the flange. A resilient seal is provided on the side of the male member head on which the shaft is located, and another resilient seal is disposed on the side of the female member flange on which the resilient members are located. The resilient members on the female portion are splayed outward by insertion of the male member shaft into the female member through hole, thereby holding the male member in engagement with the female member.
