Abstract
A self-locking fastener includes a fastener head including a first side and a second side, and a threaded rod that extends from the second side of the fastener head. The self-locking fastener also includes a circular recess formed in a surface of the second side of the fastener head. A compressible helical extrusion is adapted to be positioned within the circular recess and spiral around the threaded rod. At least a portion of the compressible helical extrusion spirals outwardly beyond the surface of the second side of the fastener head.
