R-type rivets, fan rivets, blind rivets, rivets, semi-circular heads, flat heads, semi-tubular rivets, solid rivets, countersunk rivets, blind rivets, and hollow rivets are commonly used. The self-deformed connection is riveted. Cold rivets, generally smaller than 8 mm, are used for hot rivets larger than this size. However, there are exceptions. For example, the nameplate on some locks is riveted with the interference of the rivet and the body hole.

 

R-type plastic rivets, also called expansion rivets, consist of two parts, a plastic nail and a female buckle. When it is installed, it is not necessary to use an installation tool. Place the mounting base in a smooth hole and press down on the head. The specially designed foot expands and expands when it is stressed. It is firmly locked to the installed surface. It is often used to connect plastic housings, lightweight panels, insulation materials, circuit boards, or any other light, thin, lightweight material that is aesthetically pleasing and easy to use.

 

Fan rivets are specially designed for manual installation. They can be pulled through the holes of a panel or chassis. They can be made of elastomer materials and have good toughness. They can be installed quickly even in an interference fit. Ingeniously designed with elastic function and corresponding aperture is not easy to slide out, fan rivets are mainly used in electronic computer chassis fan, heat sink and chip fixed with anti-vibration, reduce noise.

 

The hitting rivet is a new type of riveted fastener that is very convenient for riveting. The hitting rivet can exhibit its own unique advantages in a relatively small space or without a rivet gun or a rivet gun. Using a hammer or the like to knock the mandrel on one side, two or more connected parts can be riveted successfully. The core rivets can be divided into flat round head core rivets and countersunk head core rivets according to the shape of the screw caps. According to the different material combinations, they can be divided into aluminum core strike rivets, aluminum steel strike core rivets, and stainless steel strike cores. Rivets, steel rivets, aluminum stainless steel rivets, plastic rivets, etc. The core rivet does not need to use a manual riveter or a pneumatic riveter for riveting like a blind rivet. It has better riveting and convenience, and can be widely used for riveting of various connected parts.

 

Plastic tree rivets, also known as inverted tooth plastic rivets, are also known as Christmas tree type plastic rivets. The tooth-shaped flaps have good elasticity and can be directly pressed and installed manually in the interference-fitting round hole. The tooth profile can be based on the actual thickness. The self-adjusting can be fixed, and the inverted-toothed design is that the rivet is firmly fixed to the installed surface after installation, and it is not easy to be pulled out. It is suitable for fixing between foam, wood, rubber, automotive interior and other soft materials. Plastic tree rivets have excellent insulation, fire resistance, non-magnetic, heat insulation, light weight, high temperature resistance, high strength, corrosion resistance, and are widely used in various industrial fields.

Pull rivet types can be roughly divided into open type, closed type, double drum type, and single drum type series. The following is a brief description of each type. Countersunk rivets: riveted rivets for smooth and beautiful surfaces after riveting. Double-drum style blind rivets: When riveted, the mandrel pulls the end of the rivet body into a double drum shape, clamping the two structural components to be riveted, and reducing the pressure acting on the surface of the structural component. Uses: Mainly used in various vehicles, ships, construction, machinery, electronics and other industries riveting all kinds of thin structure parts. Large brim blind rivets: Compared with common blind rivets, the diameter of the aluminum cap is significantly increased. The rivet has a larger contact area when it is riveted to the connector, and has a stronger supporting surface to increase the torque. Strength, can withstand higher radial tension. Applicable industry: Suitable for fastening soft and fragile surface materials and extra large holes, increasing the brim diameter for special protection applications for soft materials. Closed blind rivets: Designed to wrap mandrel heads after riveting, it is ideally suited for many applications requiring waterproofing. With high shear, anti-vibration, anti-high pressure.

 

All-in-one aluminum rivets The rivet body is also made of high-quality aluminum wire. After riveting, appearance and durability will never appear rust. Compared with common blind rivets, rivets have lower riveting strength and are suitable for relatively flexible materials. . Open stainless steel rivets: The rivets are high tensile requirements, corrosion resistant options. Semicircular rivets are mainly used for riveting occasions with large lateral loads, and they are most widely used. Flat cone head rivets are used for riveting occasions such as hull and boiler water tank due to their large heads and corrosion resistance.

 

Countersunk heads, semi-sinking heads, 1200 countersunk heads, and semi-sinking head rivets are mainly used for riveting applications where the surface needs to be smooth and the load is not large. Flat head rivets are used for riveting applications under normal load. The flat head and flat head rivets are mainly used for riveting occasions of non-metal materials such as metal sheets or leather, canvas, and wood. Large flat head rivets are mainly used for riveting occasions of non-metallic materials. Semi-tubular rivets are mainly used for riveting applications with little load. Headless rivets are mainly used for riveting applications of non-metallic materials. Hollow rivets are light in weight and have a weak head. They are used in riveting applications where non-metallic materials are not loaded. Tubular rivets are used for non-loaded riveting applications of non-metallic materials. Signage rivets are mainly used for riveting machines, equipment and other nameplates.

Blind rivets are a type of rivets for single-sided riveting, but they must be riveted using a special tool—a riveter (manual, electric, pneumatic). This type of rivet is particularly suitable for riveting occasions where it is inconvenient to use ordinary rivets (to be riveted from both sides), so it is widely used in construction, automobiles, ships, aircraft, machinery, electrical appliances, furniture and other products. Among them, the open type blind head blind rivets are the most widely used, and the blind rivets are suitable for occasions where the performance requires smooth riveting. Closed blind rivets are suitable for riveting occasions requiring higher load and certain sealing performance.

 

The hitting rivet is another kind of rivet riveted on one side. When riveting, hit the rivet head with a hammer to expose the mandrel so that it is flush with the end surface of the nail head. This completes the riveting operation, which is very convenient, especially suitable for inconvenience. Rivets with ordinary rivets (to be riveted from both sides) or blind rivets (lacking rivet guns). Normally, flat round heads are used for riveting, and countersunk rivets are used for occasions where smooth riveting is required. Some rivets can also be worn on clothing, becoming popular elements of today, and are mostly representatives of punk style. There are also insert rivets, which are special. Divided into two parts, the thicker section of the cap body has a hole in the center, and the thinner part of the cap body is an interference fit. When riveting, the thin rod can be driven into the thick rod.

 

What are the types and uses of rivets and rivets? I believe we should have more understanding after reading it. There should be more understanding of this type of hardware accessories. The content is for your reference only, and hopefully it will be for everyone. Help.
