The history of rivets

The earliest rivets were small wooden or bone pegs, and the earliest metal deformers may be the ancestors of rivets as we know them. They are undoubtedly the oldest method of joining metals known to man, going back as far as the first use of malleable metals, e.g., the Bronze Age Egyptians riveted together six wooden scallops on the outer line of a slotted wheel, and the Greeks riveted the parts together after successfully casting large statues in bronze.

Types of rivets and their uses

Commonly used are R-type rivets, fan rivets, blind rivets (strike core rivets), tree rivets, semi-circular head, flat head, semi-hollow rivets, solid rivets, countersunk head rivets, blind rivets, hollow rivets, which are usually connected to the riveted parts by the use of their own deformation. Cold rivets are generally used for sizes less than 8mm and hot rivets for sizes greater than this. But there are exceptions, such as certain locks on the nameplate, is the use of rivets and lock body hole of the surplus riveted.
