Flat Head Rivet — Product Introduction

Flat head rivets are manufactured according to GB/T 109—1986. They are solid rivets with a flat round head and a cylindrical shank. During use, the rivet is inserted into a pre-drilled hole in the parts to be joined, and the shank end is hammered or pressed to upset it and form a driven head, thereby permanently joining two or more parts together. The flat head rivet has a relatively thin head, and after riveting the surface is flat, making it suitable for applications requiring a smooth exposed surface at the joint.

1. Product Features

• Standard structure: Dimensions conform to GB/T 109—1986, fit well with standard rivet holes, and offer good interchangeability.
• Flat head design: The head is flat and, after riveting, is essentially flush with the surface of the connected parts, giving a flat appearance.
• Solid shank: The shank is a solid cylinder, deforms uniformly during riveting, and provides a firm connection.
• Various materials: Carbon steel, copper, aluminum, stainless steel, etc., are available to suit different environments and strength requirements.
• Simple process: The riveting process is mature and does not require complex equipment, making it suitable for batch assembly.

2. Product Advantages

• Reliable connection: Forms a permanent connection after riveting, resistant to vibration and impact, and not easily loosened.
• Flat surface: The flat head design makes the outer surface at the joint smooth and reduces protrusions, suitable for parts with appearance requirements.
• Strong load-bearing capacity: After upsetting, the rivet shank fits tightly against the hole wall and can withstand large shear forces.
• Low cost: The rivet itself is low in price, and the riveting process is highly efficient, resulting in an economical overall cost.
• Wide applicability: Can be used for connecting plates of different materials and thicknesses, especially suitable for non-detachable structures.

3. Scope of Application

Flat head rivets are widely used in applications requiring permanent connections and a flat outer surface, including:

• Construction and steel structures: Connections of metal plates, supports, frames, etc.
• Vehicle manufacturing: Automobile bodies, carriages, motorcycle frames, etc.
• Ships and containers: Hull plates, container side panels, etc.
• General machinery: Chassis, guards, supports, etc.
• Furniture and hardware: Metal furniture, toolboxes, hardware products, etc.
• Electronic equipment: Cabinets, instrument housings and other connections requiring a smooth surface.

Procurement Questions

Common procurement questions about specification, material, finish and delivery.

Please confirm the application position, load, connection thickness and working environment first, then match diameter, length, thread pitch, material, strength grade, surface finish and applicable standard. Drawings, photos or old samples help us quote more accurately.

Hot-dip galvanizing and Dacromet are common choices for outdoor applications. For humid, coastal or chemical environments, stainless steel 304/316 or higher corrosion-resistant solutions may be better.

Please provide drawings or 3D files, material, dimensions, tolerance, grade, surface treatment, packing method and quantity. If drawings are not ready, samples or installation photos can also be reviewed.

Bolts and nuts should match nominal diameter, thread pitch, thread type, standard and strength grade. High-strength connections should also use suitable washers and anti-loosening solutions.

Application Scenarios

Choose material, grade and surface treatment based on real working conditions.

Construction

Steel structures, curtain walls, embedded parts and site assembly.

Machinery

Equipment assembly, maintenance parts and frame fixing.

Solar Mounting

Outdoor brackets, corrosion resistance and weather exposure.
