DRIVE RIVETS
The hammer drive blind rivet was specially designed for attachment of hard materials to solid wood and similar materials. As soon as the drive pin in the hammer drive blind rivet is struck, the end of the rivet splits into four sections that hold the materials together, while the borehole diameter is 0.5 mm greater than that of the rivet. Ideal for fixing profiles, insulation, etc, on construction materials. The rivets are set with a hammer or striking mechanism.
HAMMER DRIVE RIVET TYPE U
📌 Overview
The Stainless Steel Hammer Drive Rivet – Type U is a permanent, one-piece mechanical fastening solution designed for rapid installation into pre-drilled holes without the need for threads, nuts, or specialized installation tools. It features a U-shaped grooved drive pin that expands the rivet body when hammered into place, creating a secure, tamper-resistant fastening in a wide variety of base materials.
The Type U drive pin provides excellent holding power by expanding uniformly within the drilled hole, making it ideal for fastening nameplates, identification plates, signage, electrical fixtures, cable clips, plastic components, architectural fittings, and light-duty assemblies.
Manufactured from Stainless Steel SS304 (A2) and SS316 (A4), Hammer Drive Rivet Type U offers excellent corrosion resistance, superior durability, and long-lasting performance in indoor, outdoor, marine, and industrial environments.
Its simple hammer-driven installation significantly reduces assembly time while providing a clean, professional finish and reliable permanent fastening.
