A frangible strut for a gas turbine engine includes a first end to couple to a first structure of the gas turbine engine, and a second end opposite the first end. The second end is to couple to a second structure of the gas turbine engine. The second end includes an outer portion coaxial with and spaced radially apart from an inner portion. The inner portion is to receive a fastening device to couple the second end to the second structure. The outer portion is coupled to a body of the frangible strut. The inner portion is interconnected to the outer portion by a plurality of frangible members that are spaced apart about a perimeter of the inner portion, and each of the frangible members are configured to release the inner portion from the outer portion. The frangible strut includes the body interconnecting the first end and the second end.
