Abstract
A fastener including a bolt having a head, a shank portion, and an annular groove located intermediate the head and the shank portion, and a sleeve having a head, a shank portion, an inner cavity, a recess located in the head of the sleeve, and an annular tab located at a bottom of the recess and proximate to the shank portion of the sleeve. The sleeve receives the bolt such that the shank portion of the bolt is positioned within the inner cavity of the sleeve and the head of the bolt is positioned within the recess of the head of the sleeve. When the bolt is in an installed position within the sleeve, the annular tab of the sleeve is deformed and engages the annular groove of the bolt.
