Zusammenfassung:Described is a fastener that includes a shank having a thread, a head, and a stepped portion situated between the head and the threaded portion. The stepped portion has a diameter that is larger than the diameter of a round hole in a first type of mounting rail and smaller than a length of a side of a square hole in a second type of mounting rail. When the fastener is inserted into a round hole, the stepped portion is urged against a front surface of the mounting rail. When the fastener is inserted into a square hole, the stepped portion enters closely into the square hole and the head portion is urged against the mounting rail. Accordingly, the fastener can be used with either of two types of mounting rails: Universal Mounting Rails and EIA Standard Mounting Rails.
