Industrial Rivets

Aluminum rivets are fasteners made from aluminum, a lightweight metal known for its corrosion resistance, low density, and malleability. Here are some key points about aluminum rivets: Material: Aluminum rivets are made entirely from aluminum, or they may have an aluminum body with a steel mandrel (the stem or nail). The choice of aluminum as the material for rivets offers advantages such as light weight, corrosion resistance, and ease of fabrication. Construction: Aluminum rivets consist of a solid aluminum body and a mandrel. The rivet body features a head on one end and a cylindrical or tubular shaft. The mandrel is inserted into the rivet body during installation and is used to pull the body through the materials being joined, causing the body to deform and form a secure connection.
