The authors consider benefits and drawbacks of existing (traditional) fasteners (metal rivets) for airframes built with application of carbon composites.  Schematic designs of promising patented fasteners (PCM rivets) and patented technologies of their mounting in aircraft structures, experimental full-size designs of the fasteners of polymeric composite materials (carbon composites) providing improvement of their mounting are given. 

Key words: fasteners, mounting, rivet, carbon composite, polymeric composite material, blind riveting, aircraft structures.
