Abstract

A plastic fastening element 1 for installation in a substantially rectangular opening of a support includes head part 2 and a holding part 3. Holding part 3 is substantially rectangular in cross section and is provided with lamella-form fingers 4 on the longer sides positioned in groups lying opposite each other. Stays (5) extend along the holding part 3 and limit the edge zone of the fingers. According to the invention, the stays are resilient straps 7 wherein the beginning zones 8 of the two straps 7 lie opposite each other on different sides of the holding part 3. The straps are arranged oblique to each other and merge into a conical push-in zone 23 with oblique side surfaces 24. The head part 3 is designed for holding a strip-form object.
