Industrial Rivets (Generic) Manufacturers

-- Steady & Reliable Manufacturer --

Introduction

Industrial rivets are permanent mechanical fasteners used to join two or more plates or parts by deforming one end (the tail) into a second head (the shop head). They represent one of the oldest and most reliable methods of permanent fastening, used across industries from heavy construction and aerospace to appliance manufacturing. Unlike bolts, rivets fill the hole completely, providing high shear strength, and they are immune to loosening from vibration, provided the installation is sound.

Applications

  • Aerospace/Aircraft Structures: Used for skin panels, wings, and structural frames (solid and blind rivets).

  • Heavy Steel Construction: Used historically on bridges and still used in repair/vintage construction (hot rivets).

  • Braking Systems: Securing brake linings to shoe assemblies (semi-tubular rivets).

  • Sheet Metal Ducts and Housings: Fastening thin materials quickly and permanently.

Advantages

  • Vibration Immunity: The full mechanical interlock prevents loosening, unlike threaded fasteners.

  • High Reliability: Considered one of the most reliable permanent joint types, especially in aerospace.

  • Fills the Hole: A properly set rivet expands to fill the entire hole, maximizing shear load transfer.

  • Material Versatility: Can effectively join different types of materials (e.g., metal to plastic, two different metals).

Payment & Shipping

We process large volume orders and accept TT payments. Solid and semi-tubular rivets are typically shipped in bulk steel drums or heavy cartons, precisely weighed to meet client piece-count requirements for assembly line efficiency.

FAQ

  • Q: Why are some rivets installed hot (hot riveting)?
  • A: Hot riveting is primarily used for large-diameter, heavy-duty steel applications (like boiler tanks or bridge structures). Heating the rivet makes the material more ductile for easier forming and ensures the rivet contracts upon cooling, creating a powerful pre-tensioned joint that resists fatigue.
  • Q: What is the difference between a solid rivet and a blind rivet?
  • A: Solid rivets require access to both sides for forming the shop head (bucking). Blind rivets (Pop Rivets) are installed from one side only via a mandrel, making them suitable for closed assemblies like tubes or housings.
