SOLID, SEMI-TUBULAR & TUBULAR RIVETS

A rivet is a permanent mechanical fastener manufactured through a cold-forming process. DEGOMETAL offers three types of rivets: solid rivets, semi-tubular rivets and tubular rivets. Solid rivets consist of a solid cylindrical shaft with a "head" on one end, which might be Round, Flat or Countersunk. Their length depends on the thickness of the materials being joined. Semi-tubular or tubular rivets have gone through an additional step during forming, with the creation of a more or less deep cylindrical hole on the part opposite the head.
