Rivets with resistance to vibration

A new line of POP brand blind rivets has been introduced by Emhart Teknologies.

The HS (High Strength) structural products "are targeted at applications that require exceptional tensile and shear strength", says Emhart product manager Ryan Carter. "In particular, they offer excellent resistance to rattle and vibration - critical to the transportation industry." Available in a range of 6mm-diameter domed head steel and aluminium materials the rivets are designed "to provide positive mandrel head retention". Additional performance benefits listed by Emhart include: Increased blind side expansion. Consistent clamp force. Acceptance of oversized holes.
