Abstract
A clip is provided with a pin and a main body having an opening for inserting the pin. The pin has a flange and a shaft extending down from the flange. The outer circumference of the flange curves downward. The main body has a bottom, a pair of latching claws downward from the bottom through the opening, support legs extending downward from the bottom between the latching claws, an annular loop element on the top side of the bottom, a sloping element of gradually lowering height from the outside annular element and annular thin-walled flange from the underside of the bottom. In the primary joined state, the latching claws pushing on the pin shaft spread apart, and the claw tips engage the pin latching convex element of the pin shaft. The attached member is held between the base elements of the latching claws and contact element on the under side of the bottom of the main body. The edge of the outer circumference of the pin flange is in contact with the inclined element of the main body, improving watertightness.
