Secure and uniform fastening is made without any skills. Low round Semi-tubular 3×5 ④ Under-head shank length
① ② ③ ④ ② Rivet type

■ Structure of semi-tubular rivet ■ Features ① Type of head (Low round, truss, flat, countersunk and round)
② Rivet type (Semi-tubular) ① Head ③ Nominal diameter
Easy fastening requiring no skill ③ Nominal diameter (See the specification table.)
A semi-tubular rivet can be easily and quickly fastened using a rivet setter ④ Under-head shank length (See the specification table.)
without any special skills.

Head

■ Types of heads ■ Rivet type

Rivet design tailored to specific purpose
Low round Truss Flat Countersunk Round head Semi-tubular
Semi-tubular rivets can be made of various materials. They can be tailored
Shank to various requirements, such as conductivity and decorative design.

Stable and reliable fastening

A semi-tubular rivet does not loosen easily and that provides reliable
fastening. The rivet installation can be checked visually.
