The storage method of rivets mainly depends on the material, type and intended use environment of the rivets. Here are some general saving suggestions:
1. Classified storage:
Use specific small boxes or bags to store rivets, and label each type and size of rivets with eye-catching labels. In this way, the required model specifications can be quickly found when needed.
2. Environmental control:
For some special materials of rivets, such as aluminum rivets, may need to be stored under specific environmental conditions. For example, certain aluminum rivets need to be heat treated before use and stored at low temperatures (such as minus 10 degrees Fahrenheit or lower) to maintain their properties.
3. Avoid moisture and corrosion:
Rivets should be stored in a dry, ventilated place to avoid moisture and corrosion. Wet conditions may cause rivet rust or performance degradation.
4. Prevent mechanical damage:
For sharp or vulnerable rivets (such as the core part of a cored rivet), special attention needs to be paid to prevent mechanical damage. Make sure they are not scattered on the ground or pressured by other objects.
5. Check regularly:
Check stored rivets regularly to make sure they are not damaged or deteriorated. If any problem is found, it should be dealt with or replaced in time.
6. Follow manufacturer recommendations:
Different types and materials of rivets may have specific preservation requirements. Therefore, when storing rivets, it is best to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations or instructions to ensure the performance and life of the rivets.
Please note that the above recommendations are based on general saving methods. For certain types or materials of rivets, additional preservation measures may be required. Therefore, when saving rivets, it is best to refer to the relevant technical documents or consult professionals.
