Rivets

Tubular rivets are metal fastening components for securely and permanently joining textiles, leather, tarpaulins and other suitable materials. They are used to fasten multiple material layers together, providing a reliable connection with a neat finish.

The range includes tubular rivet caps, open and closed studs, self-piercing rivets and automatic tubular rivets, available in various sizes, lengths, materials and finishes.

Applications

Tubular rivets are used in sailmaking, bags, leather goods, protective covers and technical textile products. They are suitable for applications where materials must be securely and permanently joined.

What should you consider?

Check the cap diameter, stud length and version in relation to the material thickness. Consider the required finish, expected load and processing method. Always use a matching die set and suitable machine.

Processing and use

Prepare a suitable hole in the material if required and position the fastening components. Install the rivets using a suitable hand press or setting machine. Self-piercing and automatic versions require appropriate tools and machine configurations.

Matching products

Alternative or other version
