Abstract
A fastener for locking two objects in a predetermined relationship. The fastener has a fastener body including a spacer which defines a predetermined distance between the two objects. A first locking element is on one side of the spacer and a second locking element is on the other side of the spacer. The fastener body is adapted to receive a plunger which is adapted to travel from a retracted position to a secured position. The plunger causes the first and second locking elements to rigidly affix the objects to the fastener body thus holding the objects a predetermined distance from each other.
