 Head Styles

Protruding (P) - This is the most common head style used. The head forms a footprint above the outermost sheet being fastened for an impeccable "finished" appearance.

Brazier (B) - This protruding style is specifically designed to impersonate the profile of a solid rivet.

Large Flange (L) - Designed to achieve a larger footprint on the outside material than the protruding head style. Excellent for fastening a soft or brittle material to a solid backing.

Countersunk (C) - Designed to provide a flush surface finish. Available in 120° or 100° styles.

 Selecting The Proper Fastener

  1. Select a Rivet Group that meets shear tensile and head style requirements.
  2. Select a rivet material that is compatible with the materials being joined and the environment the application will be subjected to.
  3. Measure the thickness of the materials to be joined.


 Lockbolt Diameters
Lockbolts are available in 3/16", 1/4", 5/16" and 3/8".


 Selecting The Proper Lockbolt

  1. Select a lockbolt that meets shear, tensile and head style requirements.
  2. Select a material that is compatible with the materials being joined and the environment the application will be subjected to.
  3. Measure the combined thickness of all materials to be joined. You must add to the grip when using a flanged collar. Refer to drawings for actual dimensions.
