Short Description: Our products
Blind and speed rivets
Blind rivets
The use of blind rivets is now common in all industries to quickly join two or more artifacts. Rivets can also be chosen for applications where you work blindly, when pieces of access are only from one side. Cheapness depends on the quality of the rivet and on the efficiency of riveting machines that perform the installation.
Quality and careful selection of raw materials
The high quality of our rivets derives from a careful selection of raw materials and from specific manufacturing processes that constantly monitor the uniformity of the point of tearing, the regularity of the tightening and the perfect seal. It is recommended to always drill 0.10 mm more than the outer diameter of the rivet. If the hole on the sheet metal or on plastic is wider than 0.1mm compared to the diameter of the boby, it means that the rivet could work badly.
Rivets in cartridge
The rivets in cartridge are a fast fixing system, allowing a considerable saving in installation time. Unlike the traditional blind rivets, the rivets in cartridge rivets, or speed rivets, are loaded in groups into the riveter and then used repeatedly. Available in aluminium, steel, stainless steel and brass (in diameter from 2.4mm to 6.0mm), the rivets in cartridge are suitable for applications in every sector, without any preclusions. The quantity of pieces loaded on the riveter depends on the length of the rivets, varying between 22 pieces for a big length and 65 pieces for a small length.
FIXI recommends the use of rivets in cartridge when there is a high daily use: in addition to saving on installation time, the issue of disposing of the big quantity of nails to be thrown away with the use of the standard blind rivet is solved (a mandrel for the rivets in cartridge technology can be used installing up to 5,000 rivets, while with the standard technology 5,000 nails must be thrown away).
Threaded inserts
Threaded inserts allow to obtain reliable and resistant anchorages in the presence of materials with thin thicknesses. The laying may be done blindly, on pieces accessible from one side only, and it can be accelerated with the use of pneumatic equipments.
Inserts for each application
We offer a wide range of threaded inserts to solve any application. For a correct combination to basic structures, the production includes a line in steel zinc-plated, a line in aluminum and a line in stainless steel. It is recommended to always drill 0.10 mm more than the outer diameter of the insert and to always check that the selected insert is compatible with the thickness of the base material. The hexagonal insert solves the problem of the rotation while you screw the bolt.
Self clinching fasteners
As you can see in our wide range product catalogue, you can find any kind of self clinching fasteners. Like screws, nuts, studs and standoffs.
Suitable products for metal carpentry and pc boards manufacturer
This items are designed for easy, quick and clean installation. Self Clinching solutions are only pressed into the metal sheets without any welding, screwing or glueing process.
The knurled surfaces and the grooves on this items are especially developed to guarantee clean solutions and without any material burrs.
To guarantee the mechanical performances of such products the main important feature of application is the perfect hole diameter. Moreover any further sheet metal detail indicated on our catalogue have to be followed.
