Abstract
An airtight end retainer assembly has a premolded body with apertures and a seat area for receiving a combination stud insert, having a head, which is press fitted into the body with an o-ring seal therebetween. The retainer assembly is for use in an airspring assembly. Combinations of complementary shapes between a first body aperture and the stud head compared to a second body aperture and a central portion of the stud insert prevent relative rotation between the body and the stud insert.
