Summary: | A minimally invasive method for attaching to a surface is provided. The method utilizes an attachment apparatus for non-penetrating mechanical attachment of components to a target surface. The apparatus includes a cartridge assembly and mounting assembly. Actuation of the cartridge assembly causes first and second exothermic reactants located between outer casing and the inner casing to come into contact and cause an exothermic reaction. This reaction liquefies a bonding material between the cartridge assembly and mounting assembly, allowing it to flow around the mounting assembly and onto a target surface creating a seal. Vacuum pressure will bind the mounting assembly to a target surface. |
