The original product consists of two small plastic pins that attach to the base plate to hold them together. It fits perfectly but why haven't they improved it, I like the mop but plastic is not a good choice for this application. If that one breaks, I'll throw that mop away and find something less expensive or better made. I won't buy this again.
