TITLE PANEL MOUNTING FASTENER SYSTEM ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A mounting fastener 2 which includes various combi- nations of base plate 30, mounting bracket 4, and fastener 18 is disclosed. The mounting bracket 4 is a formed wire bracket to provide the stand-off distance between a support- ing structure and a mounted panel. Mounting bracket 4 has a pair of parallel feet 6 and a pair of parallel legs 8 extending upward from these feet and a yoke 10 joining the legs in a generally transverse plane (which may or may not be parallel with the feet 6) over the feet, yoke 10 defining a collar 14 into which fastener 18 is resiliently snapped. Opposed tips 16, one extending at the end of each foot 6, adapt mounting bracket 4 for resilient snap engagement to a panel member. Bracket 4 snaps into engagement in channels 38 and tip holes 40 of the base plate 30. A simpler form of bracket 50 is adapted to hang on a supporting structure, also effecting the spacing of the mounted panel from the support- ing structure. In an alternative embodiment, the base plate is of a plastic material and includes a number of raised points on its underside for joining or sonic welding of the base plate to the panel member. Its edge channels are tapered so that the fit of the feet therein is tighter toward the heels than toward the tips.
