Structural Characteristics
After riveting, the fractured portion of the mandrel flares out and protrudes externally from the rivet body, forming a visible locking structure (such as a cap flange or step), which facilitates inspection of connection quality. This design significantly enhances tensile strength (capable of reaching over 30 kN) and shear strength (exceeding 40 kN), making it suitable for applications requiring high-strength connections, such as steel frameworks, automobiles, and shipping containers.
Advantages of Externally Threaded (Locking Mandrel) Rivets:
· Wide grip range
· The mandrel and rivet body are securely locked, allowing for inspection at the riveted point
· High tensile and shear strength
· Sealing effect
