Abstract
A fastener for fastening at least two tandemly-positioned surfaces, such as opposing surfaces of a housing assembly, theretogether. The fastener includes first and second hook members which are affixed in a defined relationship with top and bottom surfaces which are to be affixed theretogether. A clip formed of a multi-slotted plate member having slotted openings of dimensions corresponding to the dimensions of the hook members is fastened about the hook members to affix the hook members, and hence, the top and bottom surfaces theretogether. By affixing the clip to a substrate positioned between the top and bottom surfaces, the single clip may be utilized to fasten the substrate in position between the top and bottom surfaces.
