<p>DEVICE AND ASSEMBLY FOR MOUNTING PARTS An improved assembly for mounting a part onto a base member is provided by incorporating a tubular insert having a hollow inner core in a mounting hole in the part. A fastener, such as a bolt or machine screw, may then be inserted through the insert in the mounting hole for attachment to the base member. When the assembly is subjected to axial compression by the fastener, the insert collapses uniformly in an axial direction to absorb a substantial amount of the total compressive load exerted upon tightening the fastener.</p> |
