Avdel’s Fastriv® Self-Piercing Rivet system is engineered to pierce and fasten in one operation, simplifying assembly and reducing costs while providing a strong, reliable joint. The Avdel Fastriv rivet allows dissimilar materials to be fastened easing automation and providing consistent, high joint strength, comparable to spot welds and other mechanical fastening methods. This self-piercing rivet offers fastening without piercing through the back substrate.
Please note that optimal performance is dependent on material thickness and hardness. Testing is required to determine proper rivet selection and die configuration as well as tooling for specific applications. Please contact an Avdel application engineer for assistance.
