Form the head and shank from one specified material.

01

Start with the information you have

Start with the drawing, sample, photo, or application information you have.

02

Match the material

Choose the specified contact material for the forming process, assembly, and destination market.

03

Shape the assembly interface

Define the head profile, shank form, and the way the rivet joins the customer assembly.

04

Set a repeatable specification

The approved drawing, specification, and sample guide production and inspection.

Dimensions to confirm

Confirm the material, head profile, shank form, and assembly interface for each solid rivet.

Confirm these dimensions and tolerances from the drawing or sample, material system, and project review before production.

Manufacturing & inspection

Manufacturing route

The material and head-and-shank geometry determine the forming route.

  • Specified material preparation
  • Rivet forming to the approved head and shank profile
  • Finished surface condition selected for the part
  • Sampling before the production specification is finalized

Inspection focus

Inspection focuses on the features that establish a reliable assembly interface.

  • Key dimensions and head/shank geometry
  • Visual condition and finished surface
  • Approved material and customer requirements
  • Sample-to-production consistency

Materials & applications

Material systems

  • Ag and silver-alloy material systems
  • AgNi, AgSnO2, AgCdO, Cu, and specified materials
  • One specified material across the head and shank

Typical applications

  • Relays
  • Switches
  • Contactors
  • Circuit breakers

Compare product types and prepare the drawing, sample, or photo for a technical check.

Lock the material and assembly interface before sampling.

Share the required material, head profile, shank geometry, finish, and joining interface.

  1. 01Check the application and available drawing, sample, or photo.
  2. 02Discuss a preliminary feasibility assessment and non-binding budgetary quote when the available information is sufficient.
  3. 03Develop and verify the sample and process.
  4. 04Confirm the final production quote and proceed after written approval.
