Description
The Avex® rivet is a multi-grip, hole filling, non-structural breakstem
rivet with a long and reliable track record in a wide range of applications
and industries. Multi-grip means the rivet has the capability to join component
parts having a broad range of thicknesses, thus reducing inventory where
a variety of rivet sizes might otherwise be necessary. Hole filling means
the rivet will expand radially into the application hole to provide a strong,
vibration resistant joint and compensate for irregular, oversized, slotted
or misaligned holes. Also, it can stop sheet movement in applications with
non-standard holes.
The Avex® rivet relies on a combination of its hole filling properties
along with an excellent bulbing tail formation on the application blind side
to create an extremely strong joint. The bulb formation against the rear
sheet creates a load bearing surface, which absorbs the force of setting
the rivet. Otherwise the setting force, or clamp load, could spread into
the application material and might damage the material. This makes Avex®
ideal for use in thin sheet, soft, brittle and low strength materials, as
well as resulting in high resistance to pull-out loads.
