5mm Self-pierced rivets for auto industry tailgates, seat rails, side-impact bars, space frames

Unlike conventional riveting, self-piercing technology does not require a predrilled hole. The rivet makes its own hole as it is being inserted.

None of these advances in light construction would be possible without pierce riveting technology, which enhances structural integrity without the debilitating and hardening effects of spot weld heating,Traditional fastening methods are not as advantageous or are impossible to use with today’s new material joining requirements. With pierced rivets, the ability to join together a wide range of materials offers product designers the latitude to create lighter weight, stronger, custom-tailored product with improved quality and increased manufacturing options.
