Fastener rivets: The "Invisible Cornerstone" of Industrial connections
Release Time:
Nov 12,2021
Rivets, as a type of key fastener, are nail-shaped objects that connect two through-hole parts through their own deformation or interference fit. They play an indispensable role as a "connecting link" in the industrial field. Its connection principle is unique. Through tools, the nail body is deformed to form a locking structure. Compared with bolt connections, it has the natural advantages of anti-vibration and less loosening, and is widely used in core scenarios of multiple industries.

Rivets come in a wide variety of types and their uses are clearly segmented. According to the operation mode, they can be divided into blind rivets that require special tools and blind rivets that can be operated by hand. Blind rivets, with the advantage of single-sided riveting, have become the first choice for scenarios such as construction, automobiles, and aviation where double-sided construction is inconvenient. Among them, closed blind rivets are highly favored in scenarios with waterproof sealing requirements because they can enclose the mandrel head. The core rivets can be connected simply by hitting with a hammer, making them suitable for narrow Spaces or working conditions lacking professional tools. According to structure, they can be further classified into solid, semi-hollow, and closed types. Solid rivets, with a tensile strength of ≥600MPa, support the high-strength connection requirements of Bridges, heavy machinery, and other applications.
Material and standard are the core guarantees for the performance of rivets. According to the national standard GB 116-1986, common rivets are mostly made of low-carbon steel, high-strength rivets are made of stainless steel and other materials, and non-ferrous metals such as copper and titanium can be used in special scenarios. Different materials determine their applicable scenarios: All-aluminum rivets have excellent rust resistance and are suitable for connections with soft materials. Stainless steel rivets meet the requirements of high tensile strength and highly corrosive environments. From the micro-riveting of electronic devices to the structural connection of aircraft fuselages, rivets build a safety defense line for industrial products through precise type and material matching.
