What is a rivet?
A rivet is a permanent mechanical fastener used to join two or more materials. Rivets work by inserting a metal pin into an aligned hole and deforming the end, creating a strong, secure, and durable connection. Unlike temporary fasteners like screws, rivets do not rely on threads, but instead form a permanent connection, making them ideal for applications requiring high strength, durability, and vibration resistance.
Classification of Rivets
Rivets are typically categorized by head shape, degree of hollowness, or material.
Based on head shape, rivets can be classified as flat head rivets, round head rivets, countersunk head rivets, mushroom head rivets, universal head rivets, truss head rivets, etc.
Based on degree of hollowness, rivets can be classified as solid rivets, semi-tubular rivets, or full tubular rivets.
Based on material, rivets can be classified as brass rivets, stainless steel rivets, steel rivets, aluminum rivets, copper rivets, etc.
Rivet surfaces are typically treated with rust-proofing treatments, primarily electroplating, including zinc plating, nickel plating, chrome plating, tin plating, gold plating, and silver plating. Electroplating is a common rust-proofing method for rivets. It applies a layer of plating to the rivet surface through physical or chemical methods. The plating effectively prevents corrosion and rust, while also providing a certain aesthetic effect.
Another special surface treatment method is head coating. Head coating is performed after the rivet is electroplated. This allows for a variety of colors on the rivet head, achieving an aesthetically pleasing finish.
Aluminum rivets cannot be electroplated, but they can be anodized. Anodizing also allows for a variety of color options, but the unit price is higher than electroplating.
Rust-proofing the rivet surface is crucial, effectively extending the rivet's service life and ensuring a secure connection. Different rust-proofing methods are suitable for different environments and applications, so the choice should be tailored to the specific situation.
半管状リベットは、一端が中実でもう一端が部分的に中空である金属製の留め具で、通常はアルミニウム合金、銅、鋼などの材料で作られています。中空部分はリベット本体の長さの約1/3から1/2を占めます。この設計により、リベットは取り付け時に押し出し変形によって締結効果を得ることができます。と比較してソリッドリベット、半管状リベットは、軽量、簡単な取り付け、幅広い適用性が特徴です。全中空リベットと比較して、より高い強度と安定性が得られます。半管状リベットは、取り付け時に複雑な機器を必要とせず、通常は手動または空気圧ツールで完了できます。そのため、様々な分野で愛用されています。 Nuote Metals は半管状リベットの製造を専門とし、あらゆる種類の金型を取り揃えており、カスタマイズも歓迎しています。

Rivets are fast to install, and even fully automated for high-volume applications, resulting in a simple and efficient operation process.
2. Connection Reliability
The riveting process is standardized, with strict quality control, resulting in highly stable connections. Visual inspection allows for quick verification of connection quality.
3. Vibration and Impact Resistance
Rivets connect through deformation or interference fit, providing strong clamping force and excellent vibration resistance, capable of withstanding vibration and shock.
4. Low Cost
Rivets are easy to install and can be fully automated, saving significant labor costs.
Aluminum Rivets
Advantages: Lightweight, reduces overall product weight, low cost, suitable for general civilian applications.
Disadvantages: Low tensile and shear strength, unsuitable for high-strength workpieces, prone to electrochemical corrosion when in contact with metals such as stainless steel.
Stainless Steel Rivets
Advantages: Strong corrosion resistance, high hardness, suitable for high-strength workpieces (such as marine equipment)
Disadvantages: Higher cost, typically more expensive than aluminum rivets of the same specification.
Brass and Copper Rivets
Advantages: Excellent conductivity (such as connecting electronic components), good corrosion resistance.
Disadvantages: Higher cost, more difficult to process.
Steel Rivets
Advantages: High hardness, high connection reliability, and wide applicability.
Disadvantages: Compared to other materials, iron rivets are more prone to rusting.
Rivets have a wide range of uses, from small items like a pair of scissors to large items like airplanes and ships, as well as in high-precision medical applications.
Industrial Manufacturing
Rivets are used in a wide variety of industrial fields, wherever there is a need to connect two or more materials.
Electronics
Rivets secure heat sinks and chips, providing both vibration damping and noise reduction, and are widely used in the cooling systems of electronic products such as computers and mobile phones.
Automotive
Rivets are widely used to connect components of automobile bodies and chassis, such as doors and hoods. Their lightweight and corrosion-resistant properties make them an indispensable joining method in automotive manufacturing.
Aerospace
In aircraft manufacturing, rivets are used to connect different fuselage components, such as wings and tailplanes. Millions of rivets create high-strength, corrosion-resistant joints. Aluminum and titanium alloy rivets are often used to connect components of corresponding materials, ensuring stability in extreme environments.
Rivets are used everywhere. The above examples only represent a small number of their applications. We see rivets everywhere in our daily lives, such as on scissors, folding beds, and strollers etc. Rivets can be customized to different sizes and materials depending on the application.
