Groove rivets feature circular grooves on the body which provide high grip and fastening strength. They are commonly used to join metal sheets to soft materials, wood, or plastics, ensuring a firm hold that prevents material cracking.
Solid rivets are one of the oldest and most reliable types of fasteners. Unlike blind rivets, they are completely solid and require access to both sides of the structure to be installed using a hammer or rivet gun, making them ideal for heavy structural applications like aerospace and bridge construction.
Open end rivets are popular general-purpose blind fasteners. They provide strong, vibration-resistant joints and are easy to install from one side of the component, which is ideal for electronic enclosures, automotive body panels, and sheet metal fabrication.
Exploding rivets (also known as split or peel rivets) break into wide petals during installation. This design distributes the clamping force over a larger surface area, making them perfect for soft or fragile materials like plastics, fiberglass, and wood composites.
A rivet nut provides a strong, reusable threaded insert in thin materials or hollow panels where tapping threads directly is not possible. They are widely used in automotive assembly, household appliances, and industrial machinery.
Yes, colored rivets are coated with protective, durable finishes (such as paint or anodizing) that match the aesthetic of your materials while offering enhanced corrosion resistance against weather elements, making them ideal for outdoor signage, vehicle modification, and siding.
