ABSTRACT:
A one-piece construction ring-post fastener is provided for bundling and securing elongate objects such as electrical wires, tubes or hoses. The ring-post fastener includes an axially aligned post, a plurality of spokes radially projecting from the post, and a ring affixed to the ends of the spokes. The ring-post fastener further includes constructions for affixing the post to the support surface, such as male threads of a threaded fastener projecting from one end of the post. Preferably, the end opposite the male threads include female threads of a threaded fastener sized and configured for receipt of the male threads located at the opposite end of the post. Attaching the male and female threads of the threaded fasteners together enables the multiple ring-post fasteners to be stacked upon themselves. Preferably, the one-piece ring post is constructed of a plastic material, such as Nylon 6/6 per ASTM D4066.
