Description:
Blind rivets guarantee a permanently secure joining of different materials, even sensitive ones. Thanks to their cost-effectiveness and versatility, blind rivet technology from the company has become an integral part of many modern industrial productions where fastening technology is required. It combines advantages such as overcoming restricted component accessibility, permanently secure joining of a wide variety of materials, including sensitive ones, and even documentation of the setting process if required.
Technically speaking, the blind rivet consists of two components, the hollow rivet and the mandrel. While the component must always be accessible on both sides when screwing, clinching and self-pierce riveting etc., the really special thing about the blind rivet is that it only requires access to one side of the component. During the setting process, the rivet mandrel is pulled with the chuck jaws of the setting tool, deforming the hollow rivet until it is firmly seated in the component. Finally, the rivet mandrel breaks off at the intended point, the predetermined breaking point, and the remaining mandrel can be recycled. The remnant mandrel is the part of the mandrel that remains in the hollow rivet and can take on an additional securing function depending on the application.
The perfect fastener for every application, as blind rivets are available in a wide variety of designs, materials, shapes, lengths and colours. Depending on the task that a blind rivet is to fulfil, you can choose between a standard model available from stock or a blind rivet specially designed for a specific application. A rule of thumb for determining the rivet shaft length is as follows: Material thickness + rivet shank diameter = rivet shank length
Blind rivets - Terminology:
- The blind rivet consists of two parts: the hollow rivet and the rivet mandrel.
- The hollow rivet consists of the setting head and the hollow rivet shank
- The setting head is located on the processing side and is variable in diameter and shape. It is available in flat round head, countersunk head and large head versions.
The rivet shank is available in different lengths depending on the material thickness to be riveted.- The rivet mandrel has the task of deforming the rivet shank. It contains the predetermined breaking point. Here, the mandrel tears off after the rivet has been fully formed.
- The residual rivet mandrel is the part of the rivet mandrel that remains in the hollow rivet. The remaining mandrel is the part of the rivet mandrel that is torn off the set rivet using a blind rivet setting tool.
