ABSTRACT:
A fastener includes a composite body and a metal coupling attached to the body. The metal coupling includes an attachment structure to connect the fastener to an external structure.
An assembly of components includes a first metallic component having a first coefficient of thermal expansion, a second non-metallic component having a second coefficient of thermal expansion different from the first thermal expansion and having a groove that receives a fastener that extends between the groove and the second component, the fastener slidably engaging the groove to accommodate relative expansion between the components.
