Abstract
A fastener is formed of an axially extending shaft (2) and a driving head on the end directed away from the setting direction, and has on its underside or first side (9) for the prevention of unintended loosening, a plurality of webs (12) extending radially from the longitudinal axis (L) of the shaft up to the external periphery (11) of the underside (9). The webs (12) having a substantially trapezoidal cross-section, are limited by a face surface (13) on the underside (9), extending between two flank surfaces.
