A blind fastener 10 configured to be installed in a bore of a given length comprises a sleeve member 12 configured to deform during installation of the blind fastener 10, a bolt member 11 at least partially received within the sleeve member 12, and an insulating member 13 fixedly disposed on the sleeve member 12. The sleeve member 12 has a predefined outer surface region 123 that is arranged to be disposed within the bore after installation of the blind fastener 10. The insulating member 13 and the sleeve member 12 are mutually configured such that the insulating member 13 is present on a first sub-region of the predefined outer surface region 123 and is not present on a second sub-region of the predefined outer surface region 123. Each of the first and second sub-regions comprises a complete circumference of the sleeve member 12.
