Description
Avdel supplies rivets consists of a shaft and head which are deformed with a hammer or rivet gun. The use of a rivet compression or crimping tool can also be used to deform this type of rivet; this tool is mainly used on rivets close to the edge of the fastened material, since the tool is limited by the depth of its frame.
Domed countersunk rivets are used in applications where reliability and safety count. A typical application for these solid rivets can be found within the structural parts of aircraft. Hundreds of thousands of these solid rivets are used to assemble the frame of a modern aircraft.
