´Rivet´ is a fastener that being utilized in machinery industries to fix objects permanently.
The only method to separate the fixed object is to break the rivet or damage the objects, which is different from other types of fasteners such as nails or screws. Last but not least, the technique, that use rivets to fix or set objects, is called ´riveting´.
The rivet is suitable for riveting all kinds of metal sheets and pipes that are used in manufacturing industries. It is widely being utilized in automobiles, aviation, railways, refrigeration, elevators, switches, equipment, furniture, decorations, electromechanical and light industries.
It was invented to resolve the issues that often appear when welding thin metal sheets and thin wall pipes, such as screw nuts is fusible and the internal thread is too easy to be stripped. It is really convenient that rivet can fix without tapping the internal thread and welding the nuts, and the outcome is sturdy and efficiently.
Assure the diameter of the rivet you’re setting initially. Regular specifications are 2.4, 3.0, 3.2, 4.0, 4.8, 5.0, 6.0 and 6.4mm.
Select the correspondent guiding nose from the accessories. General speaking, the specification will be carved onto the nose. It is a significant step to prevent the issues, such as low efficiency and rivet jamming, from happening.
Fully open the handle of the riveter, then tuck the mandrel, which is the thin end of the rivet, into the guiding nose.
Tuck the body, which is the other end of the rivet, into the hole you’re riveting. Gently pull the rivet against the objects, then apply forces to the handles multiple times until the mandrel pop out from the rivet.
