A fastener 1 includes a stud 2 and a nut 3. The stud comprises a shank 21 having a breakable portion 22 at a mid portion thereof, a resilient section 24 formed at one end of the shank, a nut engagement portion including a threaded portion 28 extending up to the breakable portion along the shank, and a flange 23 disposed between the end of the shank and the nut engagement portion. The nut comprises an axial hole to allow the shank of the stud to pass therethrough, resilient engagement pawls 35 on the inner wall of the axial hole for resilient-engagement with the nut engagement portion of the stud, and a flange receiving surface 37 to abut upon the flange of the stud. The stud is inserted into holes of panels with the engagement section being inserted first and the nut is fitted over the stud with the flange receiving surface facing the panels. The shank is then drawn to break the breakable portion.
