Fasteners - Speed Fasteners Grovit®
The Grovit® rivet is a speed fastening rivet designed for blind holes in thicker gauge plastics, fiberglass, aluminum alloy and similar materials. It is available in aluminum or steel construction and sizes of 3/32", 1/8", 5/32" and 3/16". Annular grooves on the rivet body expand within the host material to provide a secure anchorage. The grooves are, by design, wide and deep, which allows the application material to flow easily into the grooves. This stress relieving effect eliminates potential cracking problems in soft or brittle material. Due to the precise design of the Grovit® rivet the application parameters must meet the specified ranges to ensure proper installation and performance. Speed fasteners are placed using a unique repetition mandrel system. Rivets are loaded into specialist tooling and, during placement, the tool pulls the mandrel through the rivet giving both axial and radial expansion (providing clamp and hole fill). At the end of each cycle the next rivet is automatically delivered to the nose piece ready for placement. For large volume applications the fasteners can be bowl fed using automated equipment which gives continuous feed with cycle times as low as 1.5 seconds.
