Abstract
A safety bolt having retention means to prevent its removal from a hole unless the retention means is released. The bolt includes a solid shank, and the retention means, which is outside the hole, has a slot with a pivoted latch means which is biased to move outside the diameter of the shank to prevent removal of the bolt. Access to the latch means enables it to be pivoted to a non-interfering position. The retention means can also form part of means to prevent a nut from being unthreaded from the bolt.
