Abstract
An interface system supports a load from a surface. A disc-shaped base member is adapted to be secured to a supporting surface. A flexible member has one portion secured to the base member and another portion extends from the base member in a flexible loop to attach and support a tensile load. A cavity in the base member faces an inner surface thereof and contains an adhesive to secure the one portion of the flexible member, and an opening in the center of the base member extends from the cavity to the outer surface to pass the load-bearing flexible loop from the center of the base member and provide a flexible attachment for the tensile load in the center of the base member.
