Auveco # 25141 Self-Piercing Rivet 5.3mm Diameter x 6mm Length. Qty 50

PRODUCT INFORMATION: Quantity: 50 Description: Self-Piercing Rivet for Aluminum & Steel Body Fastening Diameter: 5.3mm Overall Length: 6mm Made In: Germany Self-Piercing Rivets for Aluminum & Steel Body FasteningSelf-piercing rivets (SPR) join two or more pieces of material using a rivet without a pre-drilled hole.Self-piercing rivets are a semi-tubular rivet driven at high force through the material layers to be joined, into a die which causes the tail of the rivet to flare out and form a joint.The process requires no hole preparation and delivers high static strength similar to, or better than, spot welding.This process produces a fatigue resistant joint that is stronger than spot welding and less susceptible to corrosion.The use of coated, lightweight and high-strength materials, such as galvanized or pre-painted steel and aluminum makes welding these materials difficult and often not possible. These rivets do not require surface prep.For general purpose use. Refer to application specifications when choosing the proper SPR. Material: Steel, H4 Hardness with patented ALAMC Coating; When using SPR rivets refer to the vehicle manufacturers (OEM) repair instructions. A test rivet should be set when the material or material thickness changes. These steps are the only way to obtain a reliable riveting process; Used by many OE manufacturers;
