Abstract

See full text

A fastener for holding together two or more structures. The fastener includes a first bush and a second bush. The first bush includes a hollow shaft having a first end and a second end opposite to the first end. The first end of the first bush has a first radially-extending protrusion. The second bush includes a hollow shaft having a first end and a second end opposite to the first end. The first end of the second bush has a second radially-extending protrusion. The second end of the second bush is configured to connect to the second end of the first bush so as to resist separation of the first and second bushes and so as to define an axial hole through the fastener defined by the shaft of the first bush and the shaft of the second bush.
