Abstract
A fastening system for substantially inhibiting slippage between first and second members interconnected thereby is disclosed. The fastening system is particularly useful in instances where at least one of the first and second members is subject to shear loading. The fastening system may include a fastener having a shank portion which is receivable within first and second bores of the first and second members, respectively, and a nose portion of a nut member for engaging a proximal segment of the shank portion of the fastener proximate the second member to substantially inhibit tilting of the fastener relative to the first and/or second member(s).
