Fasteners of carbon/carbon or other fiber/matrix composite materials made by braiding-and-molding process. Preform of braided fibers impregnated with matrix material pressed and cured in internally threaded, split mold to make externally threaded rod. Process costs less, produces stronger fasteners by avoiding breakage of fibers, and adaptable to mass production. Intended for use with ceramic and composite-material structural parts at temperatures approximately greater than 2,500 degrees F (approximately greater than 1,400 degrees C), at which metal fasteners cannot be used.
