BLIND RIVETS FOR SCAFFOLDING
Rivets in the world of constructions
Case study
How to guarantee safety through double diameter mandrels, for a high shear resistance
Today we will analyze blind rivets we developped specifically for the construction sector, in particular fastening systems for scaffolding, or shelving.
“We work with many important companies in contruction industry, and they all had the same fastening problem: with the solution Sariv developped we could help many customers.”
These structures are subjected to many stresses: they have to support the weight of operators in movement, of the working or stored material, and being mostly outdoors they are exposed to atmospheric conditions and gusts of wind.
The answer is a blind rivet which guarantees very high mechanical characteristics, and which resists the action of atmospheric agents.
Sarilock structural rivets are very suitable: the double-diameter mandrel guarantees very high shear resistance. It also remains locked inside the application, which, in addition to a particular grooving, makes it extremely resistant to vibrations.
Alternatively, our team has developed a customized fastening system for one of our customers: a large-head steel blind rivet with a 10μm ZnNi rivet body and an 8μm steel nail. The large head guarantees larger application area, while the Zinc Nickel treatment provides ideal protection against atmospheric events.
