Product introduce: A rivet, a metal fastener with a head and shank, securely joins components by deforming one end for permanent fastening. Ideal for industrial manufacturing (automotive, aerospace, shipbuilding), construction (roofing, scaffolding), electronics (metal enclosures), DIY repairs, and crafts (leatherworking, jewelry). Offers high-strength, vibration-resistant bonds across diverse industries, ensuring reliable, long-lasting connections.
How to Use
Drill Pilot Hole: Measure and drill a through-hole in the workpiece with a diameter matching the rivet shank.
Insert Rivet: Place the rivet through the aligned holes, ensuring the head sits flush against the surface.
- Secure by Deformation:
- For solid rivets: Use a rivet gun or hammer to flatten the tail end into a second head (bucking) on the opposite side.
- For blind/rivet bolts: Pull the mandrel with a rivet tool until it breaks, expanding the blind end inside the material.
Inspect Fit: Ensure both ends are tightly seated with no gaps for optimal load-bearing performance.
