A fastener to removably mount an object in a mounting aperture of a panel is provided. The fastener includes a body having two opposing side members and defining a second aperture configured to accept at least a portion of the object, at least one elastic abutting flange disposed between the fastener body and the mounting aperture, a corrosion resistant coating, and a silencer plating overlying the corrosion resistant coating.

Silencer plating for fasteners

A resilient clip having an engagement tab, which terminates at a load distributing element, and wing members that are configured to co-engage a structure to which the resilient clip is to be coupled. The wing members terminate at an engagement edge and are configured to co-engage the structure at a location along a length of their engagement edge. The load distributing element being configured to contact the structure in response to application of a withdrawing force to the resilient clip so that the load distributing element increases an area over which the withdrawing force.
