5 Main Types of Industrial Rivets


DIC Fasteners has been Supplying all kinds of Rivets, such as blind rivets, countersunk rivets, semi-tubular rivets, solid rivets, and multi-grip rivets, tri-folds rivets, etc. Every rivet has different benefits making it ideal for various types of fastening.

                                
                        A Rivet is a mechanical fastener that is made of a smooth, cylindrical body, and a tail that looks more like a metallic pin. Rivets are non-threaded usually made of steel or, aluminum. Rivets are an essential tool in machine and structure construction. Rivets are used as permanent fasteners in mechanical industries. Rivets are available in various shapes and sizes.

 * Blind Rivets:- As its name suggests, these can be installed on one side. They are ideal for projects that have access. Blind rivets are inserted into the holes drilled in the parts to be joined, and a particular tool is used to pull the dowel through the body of the rivet.

* Solid Rivets:- These rivets are made of a shaft and head that are deformed with a hammer or a rivet gun. Solid Rivets are used in applications where accuracy and safety are important. Common head styles of these rivets are countersunk, round, flat, universal, button, oval, pan, etc.

* Countersunk Rivets:- Countersunk Head Rivets are also known as flat rivets and are used in countersunk holes. These rivets are made of stainless steel, carbon steel, or alloy steel that making them highly durable for high-strength applications.

 * Semi Tubular Rivet:- These rivets are also known as tubular rivets and are the same as solid rivets, but it has a partial hole at their top, opposite to the head. The purpose of these rivets is to minimize the amount of torque needed for application by rolling the tubular portion outward.

 * Structural Rivets:- Structural rivets are those rivets that are particularly designed to fix elements where high resistance to both tensile and shear strengths are required. These rivets are leak resistant and provide excellent clamp-up torque. Structural rivets are suitable for structural or, difficult applications.

Shoulder Bolts | Shoulder Bolts Exporters | DIC Fasteners

Image
The Shoulder Bolts are hex socket drive head bolt fasteners with long non-threaded shank/shoulder between the head and the threaded end. This shoulder diameter is larger than the thread diameter. The main purpose of this non-threaded shoulder is to allow rotation of the attached parts of a mechanical assembly, engines and pulleys, etc. stripper bolts, hex socket shoulder bolts are another alias of hex head bolts. We can supply high-quality Shoulder Bolts Fasteners. Technical Specification :  Length: 3/8 to 8″  Materials: High Tensile, Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Inconel Fasteners, Incoloy Fasteners, Hastelloy Fasteners, Monel Fasteners, Silicon Bronze, Phospher Bronze, Aluminium Bronze, Nickel, Brass, Copper, etc. For more info visit: www.dicfasteners.com

An Overview of Hex Slotted Nuts

Image
We are a Supplier of Hex Slotted Nuts , in various countries. These are used in applications where vibration or torque might unfasten the assembly. Hex Slotted Nuts are similar to castle nuts but mainly have a lower profile than a castle nut of the same size. These are also preferred as castle nuts due to their lower profiles. Slotted Hex Nuts except the slots are cut into cylindrical portions that are equal in length to the slot depth and slightly smaller in diameter than the hex width. Castle nuts are the same dimensionally but have more curved slots cut in the top. If you are looking for reliable suppliers of hex slotted nuts, we are ready to serve your all kinds of needs. We have hex slotted nuts in custom as well as non-custom sizes. DIC Slotted Nuts are available in a range of strength grade property classes, both in heat-treated and non-heat treated conditions. These are also used to secure a safety wire or cotter pin to a fastener with a drilled hole.  Maintenance Check

High – Quality Steel Nuts

Image
  What are High-Quality Steel Nuts?   A high-strength nut is made of high-strength steel, or nuts that require a relatively large force to be locked can be known as high-strength nuts. Many high-strength nuts are used in connecting bridges and rail or some high-pressure and ultra-high-pressure equipment.   Is the High-Quality Steel Nuts safe for equipment?   The fracture mode of High-Quality Steel Nuts is a generally brittle fracture. Basically, to ensure the container's sealing, we require a large pre-stress when installing the high-pressure equipment.  Using high-strength steel nuts Nowadays, many power generation equipment and vehicles such as cars, trains, and airplanes are undergoing rapid development.   Therefore, locking components such as our industrial nuts also need to follow the trend and develop rapidly to keep up with the pace of development.   High-Strength Bolts are mainly used to connect some essential mechanical equipment, especially the repeated disassembly and
