a base having an opening extending through the base;
a barb supported by the base and extending at least partially across the opening; and
a strap adapted to be advanced through the opening in a first direction,
wherein when the strap is displaced in a second direction opposite the first direction, the barb pierces a medial portion of the strap such that the barb contacts the base,
wherein a ratio of the thickness of the medial portion to the thickness of the strap is in the range of 1:2 to 1:4, and
wherein the base includes a cavity extending partially through the base defining a floor and an inner surface, the inner surface including interlocking teeth configured to create a snap-fit with the barb.
