EP-N5 fastener

EP-N5 fasteners were a type of six-pronged panel joint assembled by the inmates of the Galactic Empire's Narkina 5 Imperial Prison Complex on the moon Narkina 5. Complex in design and also identified as "widgets," the fasteners were used in the construction of the Death Star superweapon's Mk I Superlaser dish, to keep receptor cells in alignment within the focusing lens. The wider galaxy never learned of the joint system's true purpose, with escapee Cassian Jeron Andor only knowing it was a type of joint.
