ABSTRACT:
Method of tying two or more components together using a fastener. Each component is provided with a hole and the components are placed so that the holes overlap one another in order to receive the fastener in the holes. The fastener is placed in the holes and mechanically pressure-loaded and heated in order to deform the fastener to tie the components together. The fastener is heated essentially only during the fastener deformation phase in order to minimize the heat transfer from the fastener to the components being tied.
