Product Description:
A method of connecting two or more parts by using axial force to
thicken the rivets in the rivet holes of the parts and form a nail
head.
Riveting in 3000 BC has been new, the earliest discovery of
riveting originated in Egypt, used in the manufacture of wooden
tools, and later wood rivets were used for fastening, the Vikings
in the 7th and 8th centuries AD in their ships were also used to
the wood rivets, the use of wood rivets has been extended to the
early 19th century, the development of the steel industry to solve
the problem of wood rivets are easy to crack the rivets of the use
of metal to make the structure stronger, even when riveting thick
materials. From that time onwards, other joining technologies are
also developing rapidly, but until now, riveting technology is
still widely used in material joining applications, including
aviation, aerospace, marine, vehicles, air conditioning, furniture
and so on.
Solid round head rivets
This is one of the oldest and most reliable forms of fastening and
was used during the Bronze Age. The basic components of this type
of rivet include a shaft and a head, which are riveted by a hammer
or a rivet gun, and it is also possible to rivet this type of rivet
by means of press fitting.
Rivets are commonly used in applications requiring high reliability
and safety, such as aircraft, and some craftsmen have used solid
rivets in the manufacture of medieval armour, jewellery and metal
decorations.
High-strength structural steel rivets have been gradually replaced
by high-strength bolts in the process of technological development,
the main reason is that the installation of high-strength
structural steel rivets requires skilled labour to riveting, while
the general high-strength bolts can be installed by the average
worker with only simple training.
In riveting, the use of its own deformation or interference to
connect the riveted parts of the parts. There are many types of
rivets, and not in any form. Commonly, there are semi-circular head
rivets, flat head rivets, countersunk head rivets, semi-hollow
rivets, solid rivets, sub-mother rivets, step rivets and so on.
Round head rivets are mainly used with the larger lateral load
riveting occasions, the most widely used.
Flat cone head rivets due to fat nail head, corrosion resistance,
commonly used in ship hulls, boiler tanks and other corrosive
strong riveting occasions.
Countersunk head, 1200 countersunk head rivets are mainly used for
the surface must be smooth, with the load is not big riveting
occasions.
Semi-countersunk head, 1200 semi-countersunk head rivets are mainly
used for smooth surface, with the load is not big riveting
occasions.
Flat Head Rivets
Flat head rivets are primarily used on metal exterior surfaces that
often require a better appearance and the elimination of unwanted
air resistance.
Flat head rivets are generally fitted inside countersunk holes,
hence the name countersunk head rivets, and are often used in the
external mounting of aircraft.
Applications:
Copper parts are a kind of parts widely used in various industries,
which are characterised by good electrical conductivity, corrosion
resistance, plasticity and high practical value. In different
industries, due to their different characteristics and needs, the
application of copper parts is also different, but in general, can
provide assistance to the industry it serves.
What industries are copper products used in?
Copper products are used in a wide range of industries, including
the electrical, electronic and information industries,
transportation, construction, machinery manufacturing and chemical
industries.
Electrical Industry
Copper has important applications in the electrical industry,
mainly in the manufacture of wires and cables. Due to its excellent
electrical conductivity, copper is widely used in power
transmission and distribution, especially in new energy industries
such as wind power and solar power generation, where the demand for
high-quality, high-performance wires and cables has increased,
further boosting the demand for copper in the electrical
industry12.
Electronic Information Industry
In the electronics and information industry, copper is used in the
manufacture of printed circuit boards (PCBs), connectors and other
electronic components. With the popularization and application of
5G technology, the replacement of electronic equipment is
accelerating, and the performance and quality requirements for PCBs
have increased, thus driving the growth of copper consumption in
this sector13.
Alloy brass consists of copper and zinc and the relative proportions can be adjusted to produce different colours and chemical, physical and electrical properties. However, copper usually accounts for the greater proportion.
With its bright and lustrous golden hue, brass has long been the material of choice and is still widely used to make drawer pulls and door handles. In addition, due to its low melting point, ductility (with hand tools and modern tools), brass has been widely used for engraving and fabricating implements milling and lathe), rigidity and excellent thermal and electrical conductivity. Brass with a high copper content is more golden and softer in colour, while brass with a low copper content and a high zinc content is more silvery and harder.
There are many grades of brass, each with a unique material composition. At Runsom Precision, we offer CNC machining services with six different grades of brass:
Alloy 260, also known as cartridge brass. Because of its ability to
withstand cold working, it is a suitable material for products such
as ammunition, automobiles, fasteners, and hardware.
Alloy 272, also known as brass, contains 33% zinc. This type of
brass is commonly used in industrial and construction applications.
Alloy 330 is a brass alloy that is ideal for applications that
require high machinability. It has a low lead content, is best
suited for cold working, and is often used in pipe production.
Alloy 353, also known as clock brass, is often used in the
manufacture of precision components such as watch parts due to its
excellent machinability.
Alloy 360 is the most common type of brass and is also known as
free-cutting brass. This alloy is characterised by excellent
formability and machinability, making it suitable for soft brazing
and soldering operations. It is widely used in a variety of
fasteners, fittings, valves and hardware components.
Alloy 385, also known as architectural bronze, is ideal for
building and construction applications. It is available in a
variety of extruded and drawn shapes, including handrail mouldings,
angles, square tubes, channels and more.
