Aluminium rivets offer good corrosion resistance and are lightweight, making them ideal for applications where weight is a concern or where exposure to moisture is likely.
Yes, you will need a rivet gun (riveter tool) designed to work with 6.4 mm (1/4") rivets.
While not explicitly stated, standard 6.4mm x 18mm rivets typically have a grip range suitable for joining materials with a combined thickness of approximately 2mm to 10mm. Always refer to your rivet gun's specifications for exact compatibility.
Yes, these aluminium rivets can be used to join steel, provided the steel thickness is within the rivet's grip range and a suitable hole is drilled.
Each pack contains 250 rivets.
For critical structural applications requiring high load-bearing capacity, steel rivets or specialized fasteners might be more appropriate. These are generally suited for general maintenance and assembly tasks.
Check that the rivet gun is correctly aligned with the rivet and that sufficient force is being applied. Ensure the rivet gun's jaws are clean and in good condition. Verify the rivet's grip range is suitable for the material thickness.
Ensure you are using the correct size rivets for your rivet gun. Clean the rivet gun mechanism, especially the jaws and mandrel collection area. Check for any bent or damaged rivets.
Confirm that the drilled hole size is appropriate for the rivet shank diameter. Ensure the materials being joined are clamped tightly together before setting the rivet. Verify that the rivet is fully set.
Setup:
Compatibility:
These rivets are designed for use with standard rivet guns that accommodate 6.4 mm (1/4") rivet shanks. They are suitable for joining a variety of materials including aluminium, steel, plastic, and composites, provided the material thickness falls within the rivet's grip range.
Care:
Store rivets in a dry environment to prevent premature corrosion, especially if exposed to moisture. Clean any dust or debris from the rivet gun's jaws periodically to ensure optimal performance.
