Body Bound Blind Rivet ARCO

According to the ARCO body-bound rivet the folding rivet forms a large upset head too. Thisguarantees an equal distribution of forces, so that especially plastics and other soft or vulnerable materials resist against cracking or pullthrough. Typically this rivet is used in all areas of industrial light weight constructions. As a result of the locked mandrel in the connection, the spread rivet is splash water resistant. VVG offers two different types – the standard split rivet and a high strength version with neoprene washer.

Reliable with low wear. On the HONSEL BZ 143A, the clamping jaws are specially adapted to the trapezoidal grooves of the rivet mandrel. In combination with the modified clamping mechanism, this guarantees secure and positive setting of FERO® BULB high-strength blind rivets (or comparable types) with mandrel diameters from 3.8 to 6.15/6.5 mm! Wear of the clamping jaws is minimised!

Self-clinch studs are fasteners that have a serration under the head. At inserting into the metal sheet it presses the displaced material into the rivet ring to secure the fastener. Sheet metal fasteners with internal and external threads are especially suitable for working with thin metal sheets starting with 0.5 mm thickness. This reduces the thickness of the elements in general in favour of lower weight and less material. Aft er processing they are permanently connected to the base material. The screwed connecti ons can be removed aft erwards without risking displacement of the fastener. Through this the production processes are rationalized and secured.

Large grip ranges and higher shear and tensile forces - OPTO®-Bulb is the universal rivet for difficult jobs.The OPTO®-Bulb is combining the flexibility of multigrip rivets with the excellent strength of the FERO®-Bulb series. It offers a secure locking of the remaining mandrel as well as a smooth formed closing head.
