Abstract: A two piece detachable connector for joining furniture components at right angles comprising a pin and a holding piece, and method of installation. The pin has a head, a neck, a radial shoulder to limit insertion into a bore hole in a first furniture component and an insertion shank having annular fins to retain the pin in the bore hole. The holding piece has a recess to receive the pin head, neck and radial shoulder, a portion of which recess is arcuate and forms a constriction to removably capture the neck of the pin. The holding piece also has sharp, relatively deep annular fins to engage the wall of a bore hole in a second furniture component while permitting limited lateral displacement of the holding piece within the bore hole to accommodate inaccuracies in the relative locations of the bore holes in the furniture components. The pin and holding piece have camming surfaces that cooperate to effect mating engagement during assembly of connector parts.
