As a mechanical fastener, rivet has a very wide range of application, covering almost all areas that need to be connected and fixed. The following is the main scope of application of rivets:
First, the field of industrial manufacturing
1. Automobile Manufacturing:
– Used to connect body, chassis and other components to provide strong connections and reduce weight. Rivets play an important role in the automotive industry, ensuring the strength and stability of automotive structures.
2. Aerospace:
In aircraft manufacturing, rivets are widely used to connect fuselages, wings, engines and other components to ensure the structural integrity and safety of the aircraft. The aviation industry has extremely high requirements for rivets, which need to have high strength, light weight, corrosion resistance and other characteristics.
3. Shipbuilding:
– Used to connect hulls, decks and other components to ensure the structural integrity and safety of the ship. Shipbuilding requires the use of a large number of rivets to hold steel plates and other components.
4. Buildings and Bridges:
– Used to fix steel structure, aluminum components, concrete reinforcement, etc. Rivet in building and bridge industry an important advantage is that will not damage the structure of the existing, and almost won’t produce vibration and noise during the installation process.
Second, the field of electronic and electrical equipment
– rivets used in the manufacture of electronic devices such as computers, mobile phones and other electronic equipment, circuit board to connect, shell and other components. The use of rivets is an important factor to ensure the quality and performance of electrical products.
Third, furniture manufacturing
The role of rivets in furniture manufacturing is mainly to connect different parts and enhance the structural strength and stability of furniture. For example, connecting the chair legs to the seat, linking the bed frame to the bed plate, etc.
Fourth, other application areas
1. Machine manufacturing and maintenance:
– Used to connect various mechanical components such as gears, shafts, connecting rods, etc., to provide reliable connections and drives.
2. The power and telecoms equipment:
– Used to connect the metal plate, ceiling, partition plate and other panels to ensure the stable operation of the equipment.
3. Outdoor activities and camping equipment:
– Used to connect tents, awnings, canvas awnings and other materials to ensure that the equipment is strong and durable.
4. Special use:
– Some rivets such as plate rivets are also used for riveting machines, equipment, etc., above the nameplate, play a role in identification and fixing.
Fifth, the application of different materials and types of rivets
– plastic rivets, such as R type plastic rivets, often used to connect to the plastic shell, light board, insulation materials, such as thin, light quality of circuit board materials.
– Core rivet: suitable for small space or can not use the riveting gun environment, through the hand hammer to complete the riveting operation.
– Core-pulling rivets: Especially suitable for occasions where it is inconvenient to use ordinary rivets (riveted from both sides), such as riveting on buildings, automobiles, ships and other products.
In summary, the scope of application of rivets is extremely wide, covering almost all the areas that need to be connected and fixed. Different types of rivets are suitable for different application scenarios and needs according to their different materials, shapes and characteristics.
