Abstract
The present invention relates to a mounting device having a metallic base plate, from which multiple fastening projections project, as well as a method for producing this mounting device. The mounting device is obtainable by incising multiple tab blanks into the surface of the base plate while leaving at least one connection section per tab blank. The fastening projections are produced by bending the tab blanks out of the base plate, multiple fastening projections forming a group and the fastening projections within the group being bent in such a way that sections lying distal from the base plate are inclined toward the interior of the group and a section lying between the connection section and inwardly inclined section projects toward the exterior of the group.
