RIVSET® self-pierce rivets - setting process

Описание

RIVSET® self-pierce riveting is a mechanical joining process. It makes mechanically strong joints of similar or combined material types. Even joints with more than two layers are possible.

Using a semi-tubular rivet, the material layers are joined in a single low-noise operation, without pre-drilling and emissions, producing an interlocked friction joint. The rivet pierces the upper layers of the material and spreads under the influence of a die. Since the lower layer is not pierced, the resulting joint is localised and impervious to gas and liquid.
