stainless steel rivets

Rivet type

The early riveting process was single and the structure was simple. The rivet consists of a smooth cylindrical shaft with a head at one end. When installing, the rivet is placed in a punched or drilled hole, and the tail is thickened or bent (to deform it) to expand and fix the rivet in place.

Since the installed rivet has an effective head at each end, it can withstand tensile loads and shear loads.

In recent years, the types of stainless steel rivets processes have been enriched and the classification methods have been diverse. According to the process classification, it can be divided into cold riveting and hot riveting. According to the environmental openness requirements, it can be divided into single-sided riveting and double-sided riveting.

Characteristics of stamping rivets

Punch riveting is also called press riveting process. The parts are linked by plastic deformation of rivets or parts after being stressed. Whether it is rivet deformation or material deformation, the press riveting process is a cold heading process.

The punching riveting process is subjected to force quickly and the riveting efficiency is high. The connecting materials at the riveting point are inlaid with each other, and there are no edges or burrs at the bottom, which avoids stress concentration and can withstand high dynamic loads.

There is no heat input during the connection process, and the surface coating of the material at the connection point will not be damaged. At the same time, welding spatter and welding deformation are avoided, and the connection of multi-layer materials, different plate thicknesses, and different materials can be achieved.

Factors to consider when selecting rivets

1. Material of the connected parts - metal or non-metal, hardness and brittleness of the material, etc.;

2. Plate thickness - the selected rivet ensures that the plate thickness is within its clamping range;

3. Connection strength, determine the tensile force and shear force required for the connection point of the rivet;

4. Hole size - the manufacturer specifies the matching hole size for the rivet nut, and you can refer to the manufacturer's design information;

5. Consider the coating thickness of the plate to avoid the hole becoming smaller after coating and not suitable for installation;

6. Material corrosion resistance - the material type and coating of the rivet should be based on the required corrosion resistance. Try to choose rivets of the same material as the connecting part. Different materials may cause galvanic corrosion;

7. Special requirements, such as flat head, countersunk head, double drum type, or lantern type;

8. Watertight and airtight requirements - watertight and airtight requirements of the riveted parts.
