A stud retainer that may be used in numerous applications includes features that increase the extraction forces to better retain the stud in the retainer. In an exemplary embodiment, the stud retainer includes a retainer body having retention features that engage the threads on the stud, and wedge projections that, in use, serve to force the retention features into a more secure engagement with stud threads, creating a wedging effect. With the invention, as the threaded stud is attempted to be withdrawn or pulled from the exemplary stud retainer, the retention features move in a direction towards the wedge projections. Once the retention features contact the wedge projections, the wedge projections force the retention features to wedge against the threads of the stud to better secure the stud to the retainer.
