Abstract:
1. A fastening element comprising: a plug-in region; a contact surface arranged at a distance from the plug-in region; a shaft between the plug-in region and the contact surface, the plug-in region being pressable axially through a through opening in a wall area in a plugged position of the fastening element up until the contact surface or an intermediate part arranged in between the plug-in region and the contact surface presses one side of the wall area, the shaft being radially centered in the through opening; a stop configured on the fastening element to delimit an installed position of the fastening element when the plug-in region is pressed through the through opening in the plugged position and is rotated about an axis of the shaft into the installed position; at least one radial projection of the plug-in region which, in the installed position delimited by the stop, engages behind an edge area of the through opening to prevent axial displacement of the shaft from the through opening in order to fix the fastening element in the installed position; wherein the fastening element is configured for connection with another component; wherein the stop is configured at a radial distance from the axis of the shaft on a lever arm of the fastening element, and the stop cooperates with an edge surface area of the wall area in the installed position; and wherein the component is attached to the fastening element by at least one threaded screw screwed into the fastening element.
