Wholesale Flat Round Head Semi Tubular Hollow Rivets

Wholesale Flat Round Head Semi Tubular Hollow Rivets

Semi-tubular rivets, also referred to as tubular rivets, share similarities with solid rivets but feature a partial hole at the tip opposite the head. This hole serves the purpose of decreasing the required application force by rolling out the tubular portion. Applying a semitubular rivet necessitates only a quarter of the force needed for applying a solid rivet. Additionally, tubular rivets can be utilized as pivot points where movement is desired since the expansion of the rivet occurs solely at the tail.

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
