Round head solid rivets are permanent, vibration-resistant fasteners featuring a solid shaft and a large, semi-circular dome head
Once installed, they form a solid bond that cannot be easily removed or undone without destroying the fastener.
Commonly manufactured from metals such as aluminum, copper, steel, and stainless steel.
DIN 660
Installation requires access to both sides of the material.
The rivet is placed through a pre-drilled hole, and the unformed tail end is then deformed using a rivet gun or a hammer and bucking bar.
The deformed tail locks the materials together. For optimal holding power, the formed head should ideally measure about one and a half times the diameter of the shaft
