Summary:A toolless compression mechanism includes an upper compression element having a plurality of wings surrounding a hub, a base having a locator element positioned on an underside surface of the base, and a hub extension having inner threads disposed therein; an intermediate compression element having an upper intermediate compression surface having a channel that upon assembly of the toolless compression mechanism mates with upper compression element; a lower compression segment having an extension with threads that mates with the inner threads of the upper compression element, and a sealing element positioned between the intermediate compression element and the lower compression segment. When turned, the upper compression element is displaced along the hub extension such that the sealing element is compressed.
