High-Quality Rivets for Aerospace Applications
Rivets are mechanical fasteners used to combine two or more materials permanently. Rivets consist of a cylindrical shaft with a head on one end and a tail on the other. One end of the rivet is deformed through mechanical action to lock the shaft in place. Due to their high strength and durability, rivets are commonly used in industrial applications, including aircraft, automotive components, construction, and marine vessels. Rivets are available in various styles, including solid, semi-tubular, and blind, each designed to suit specific application requirements. Rivets are a secure, permanent, and cost-effective fastening solution for many industrial applications.

Solid Rivets, Blind Rivets, & More Rivet Styles
Each type of rivet offers various benefits for particular applications. Rivet styles include:
Blind Rivets/Pop Rivets: Blind rivets are designed for limited access joints and require access from only one side, making them ideal for use in tight spaces. Blind rivets are inserted into a pre-drilled hole and set using a specialized tool that pulls the mandrel through the material, expanding the rivet body to create a secure connection.
Solid Rivets: Solid rivets are composed of one piece of material and are hammered or pressed into place to create a permanent joint.
Semi-Tubular Rivets: Semi-tubular rivets consist of a hollow shaft with a head on one end and a rolled tube on the other, allowing them to be used in softer materials and applications where a watertight seal is required.
