Zusammenfassung:The invention is a separable connector that includes nut and bolt assemblies for joining two structural elements together. The thread geometry is selected such when the nut and bolt assemblies are threadably joined and a tension load applied therebetween, upon release of nut the tension load is converted into rotational energy causing the nut to rotate at high speed acting as a flywheel causing the nut to spin off of the bolt.
