Abstract
A captive fastener is disclosed having a longitudinal slot along the shank for receiving a hold-out clip, and a chamber that houses a retractable push out pin. The push out pin is spring actuated to extend out of the shank and can be retracted into the cavity against the bias of the spring to pass through a primary panel and subpanel. The push out pin is shaped to bear against a counterbore and secure the fastener within a panel while other components are affixed to the fastener.
