Fasteners: Breakstem RivetsInterlock® (Structural)
Description The Interlock® rivet is a hole filling, multi-grip, structural breakstem
rivet available in steel or aluminum construction. 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.
However, the main feature of the Interlock® rivet is an internal, mechanical
locking feature where the portion of rivet mandrel remaining after rivet
placement is captured within the rivet. This action creates a seal at the
rivet head and provides superior vibration and water resistance. The mechanical
lock is accomplished without a special nose tip so the Interlock® rivet
can be installed at a lower per piece cost than other locking mandrel rivets
that require special tooling.
Installation ToolsPart numbers are listed in order of base tool (no nose equipment), nose assembly, nose tip, complete tool (includes nose equipment).
