Multi-grip rivets
A dedicated geometry lets one size cover a range of joint thicknesses. The grip range belongs to the selected part number and is different from body length.
Features and applications.
Useful for production with changing stack thicknesses. Compare the complete minimum–maximum grip interval with every joint configuration; verify vibration behaviour and mandrel retention separately.
What to check
Start from the joint drawing rather than nominal diameter alone. Establish the grip stack, hole tolerances and space for setting. State whether the main load is shear, tension or pull-out from the substrate.
Materials and design
Specify body and mandrel or pin separately, together with head, finish and exposure. Assess contact compatibility for dissimilar materials; request part-specific confirmation for special requirements.
Selection data.
| Parameter | Required information |
|---|---|
| Geometry | Diameter d, length L, head type and envelope; drawing if available. |
| Grip stack | Minimum and maximum total thickness, layer count, materials and coatings. |
| Hole and access | Diameter and tolerance, through or blind hole, rear access and clearance. |
| Performance | Shear, tension, vibration, any sealing requirement and operating conditions. |
| Documentation | Standard with edition, required test report or document and agreed traceability. |
Standards and documentation.
For this family, the manufacturer specification and individual part drawing are essential. We do not assign a generic ISO standard to special, structural or solid rivets without documentary evidence.
Frequently asked questions.
When should I choose this family?
Useful for production with changing stack thicknesses. Compare the complete minimum–maximum grip interval with every joint configuration; verify vibration behaviour and mandrel retention separately.
How do I choose rivet length?
Measure the stack and select a part whose minimum–maximum grip includes that thickness. Body length and grip are different dimensions.
What hole diameter is required?
Use the diameter and tolerance in the individual part specification. There is no universal allowance across families; check burrs, ovality and alignment.
Is a stainless rivet always suitable for marine use?
Check body and mandrel alloy, exposure, chlorides and joined materials. The words stainless or A4 do not qualify the complete joint.
How can I request a quotation and technical documents?
Send the family or code, dimensions, grip, materials, quantity and documentation requirements. Dueemme Sidol checks the specification and availability before confirmation.
