A fitting for releasably connecting two plates, particularly furniture plates, includes a clamping part rotatable between a released position and a locked position and a tightening bolt having a head received by the clamping part. The clamping part has gripping arms configured to engage behind the head of the tightening bolt when the clamping part is in the locked position. At least the surfaces of the gripping arms acting in the locked position of the clamping part against the head of the tightening bolt have a deformable intermediate layer.
