Rivets

Choose solid and durable fasteners

Did you happen to make the drill hole too big? Is the rivet mandrel sticking out of the rivet or not seal or tightened enough? Did the riveted mandrel caused risk of corrosion?

The right kind of rivet and good quality is essential for a secure fixing. However, with the wrong rivet, you can make yourself a lot of frustration and expense. Our professional advice will help you choose the right rivet!

Rivets - "Provider of safe fixation and can be removed only with destruction"

There are materials that would undergo adverse changes in structure due to welding or soldering. Thus, in some cases, rivets are applied to fix the parts to each other. That is why riveting is the favorite permanent fixing method for the mechanical, instrument and light industry. You can use it as a handyman in many everyday cases, especially if you do not have welding equipment or crewing is not possible (for example one side access only). A positive features of riveted metal structures are their long life, strength and joints that can be disassembled by destruction only.

Riveting - Reliable fixing even in heavy loads

The different types of rivets are named after their shape, operating method/technology. That is why you can meet the extra big, big, dome, countersunk head pop rivets. Ask for our advice on choosing the right rivet!

What material rivets do you encounter? Mostly steel, aluminum, stainless steel (A2 AISI304), extra stainless steel for more resistance against chlorids (A4 AISI316) or copper may be the base material that should be chosen to meet strength, corrosion, electro-corrosion and of course aesthetic requirements.

They are generally selected according electrochemical corrosion coording application needs and are therefore generally identical to the material to be riveted. When making joints, the rivet also performs a certain amount of strength (shear and tension) and sealing tasks. Sealing can be done by closed and hole-filling rivets, and high strength rivets like Monobolt, Interlock and Hemlok rivets.

There are many types of rivets to choose from, depending on task you need to perform. The design of the rivet determines the strength of the connection.

POP rivet is the Easy and Fast riveting Specialist - Why recommend it?

The POP rivet has two main parts. One is the rivet body, which makes the fixing and the other is the mandrel, which is responsible for fixing the rivet. The rivet is ideal for joining two or more sheet metal parts together. Pop riveting is a special type of riveting (one side installation, a quick riveting technique and applied in many technical fields, but also used in household. When attaching leather, aluminum, iron plate to one another, it can often come out of your tool box.

What Pop Rivet to Choose?

There are many factors of quality and safety to consider when planning to buy Pop rivets. In addition to the quality of the material, the behavior of the product after installation/fixation and the strength requirements are also influenced by the design of the pop rivet. Depending on the different properties, this should be considered when selecting the rivet type.

What are these properties? What a rivet head; fixing force strength, mandrel locking, but also the ability to fill holes, counter side-spreading and degree of sealing or waterproofing can greatly influence the choice.

Detailed data sheets include tensile and shear strength values for rivets. The choice of the right diameter product can be easily selected according strength requirements.

What data will you come across? For example, head design, length dimension, nominal hole diameter or minimal and maximal plate thickness.

Masterfix Rivets - High strength, different head types

Masterfix has 30 years of industry experience focusing on supplying the market for Blind Rivets and riveting tools. Standard rivets come in a variety of materials (aluminum, steel, stainless, extra stainless steel for more resistance against chlorids (A4 AISI316), copper) as well as types (head and body form).

Masterfix high-strength rivets also offer a number of advantages for demanding applications:

- Exceptionally high shear and tensile strength; It is thus suitable for applications where high loads require reliability.

- Large washer like deformation at the back side

- The waterproof connection.

- High resistance to vibrations.

Monobolt and Interlock rivets

Their greatest advantage is their high strength:

large grip range and hole fill,
high shear and tensile values,
enabling strong vibration resistantconection
the probability of water infiltration decreases
thanks to the special puller design, the mandrel is permanently fixed during riveting

Not for Interlock, but the Monobolt model requires a special riveting head.

Many factors can result in deterioration of strength and sealing, so it is very important to choose the correct size of drill hole for the rivet.

Therefore, it is advisable to ask assistance of a specialist in making the selection in order to avoid the typical riveting mistakes, or to select the right rivet when ordering a larger quantity of "rivet fleet"!
