Cone Round Head Semi Tubular Rivets For Sale

A semi-tubular rivet is a type of fastener that consists of a cylindrical shank with a head on one end. It is similar to a solid rivet, but with a crucial difference. A semi-tubular rivet has a hole in its center, which makes it semi-tubular rather than fully solid.

The shank of the semi-tubular rivet is inserted through the aligned holes in the materials to be joined. Once in place, the open end of the shank is deformed using a rivet setting tool. This causes the shank to partially collapse, creating a secure and permanent connection between the two materials.

Semi-tubular rivets are commonly used in applications that require robust fastening, such as automotive, construction, and manufacturing industries. They provide excellent strength and stability while offering the advantage of simpler installation compared to solid rivets. The hole in the center of the semi-tubular rivet allows for more controlled deformation during installation and can also be used to attach additional components, such as wires or cables.

Advantages of Semi Tubular Rivet

• Permanent fasteners with good seam strength
• Easy to inspect jointly
• Rivet rivets can be rolled, segmented (starset), spinned, flared, or pressed
• It can be used to hold similar or different materials for multiple workpieces. It can be used to hold joints tightly together or for hinge assemblies
• Pipe hole rivets are typically used to pierce and rivet materials (leather-corrugated-plastic-rubber-fabric) without the need for pre-drilling or punching
• Rivets can also be used with rivet covers to improve the appearance of the riveted ends
• Long rivets can be applied without bending or bending the rivet handle
• An inexpensive alternative to threaded fasteners
• Virtually no scrap is generated during the manufacturing process
• Easy to adapt to automation
