Threaded fastener with retainer

A fastener assembly comprising:

• a fastener element with a head section constructed to be engageable with a driving tool, a threaded shank section with threads having a pitch and an integrally formed distal end section;
• said distal end section having a circumferential groove;
• a retention device member secured to said distal end section;
• said retention device member engageable to a fastener receiving member when said distal end section is inserted into a hole in said fastener receiving member;
• said retention device engaging said circumferential groove in proximity to a proximate end of the retention device to be positively engaged onto said distal end section and being adheredly molded to the distal section;
• said retention device having at least one outer extension flange with a base axially aligned over said groove section and said flange being angled radially outwardly and axially toward said head section;
• said groove section extending axially beyond said flange in the direction of said head section;
• and
• said retention device being sized to engage an inside wall of said hole in said fastener receiving member to provide insertion of said fastener assembly in said hole with a low entry force and to resist higher exiting forces.
