We did a survey with our overseas distributors about the different terminologies used to refer to Starlock Push-on Fasteners and we were fascinated to learn of the differences.
For example, South Africa will use the name Push On Fix and the U.S.A. will refer to them as Star Washers with engineers in New Zealand being familiar with both of those terminologies.
