A fastener has male and female sections, each section having an elongate portion and a head with an outer diameter larger than that of the elongate portion. The elongate portion of the male section has external threads, and the elongate portion of the female section has internal threads for engaging the threads of the male section. The outer end of the male section is castellated and has a threaded cavity. The head of each of the sections receives a tool for tightening the sections together. The female section has a hole through the center of its head that aligns with the cavity in the castellated portion. A tapered, threaded lock screw is inserted into the hole and rotated to cause the threads to engage the cavity, the segments of the castellated portion deforming radially outward and causing a large normal force between the threads on the segments and the threads of the female section.
