The rivet is a fastening piece, often metallic, which comes in the form of a solid or hollow cylindrical rod. One of the ends features a slightly larger part, known as the head. The other end, which will be used for riveting, is flatter. Nowadays, rivets come in various models for wide use.
Rivets are essential tools when it comes to performing small household DIY projects or undertaking large-scale works. The choice of rivets depends on the materials you will be assembling. There are standard rivets available in different sizes. To offer a wide selection, they are made from different materials: aluminum, mild steel, copper, or alloy. You will also find blind rivets or pop rivets, which are a real revolution in the field of riveting. Due to their characteristics, some of them have the ability to prevent infiltrations. These are the most recommended rivets for work on roofs, gutters, cisterns, or exhaust pipes. Finally, there are double rivets which consist of two pieces, each with a head. They are mostly made of plastic or brass.
