Rivisarjat
Rivisarjat, also known as rivets, are mechanical fasteners used to join two or more metal surfaces together. They consist of a head, a shaft, and a countersunk or flat head. Rivets are typically made from materials such as steel, aluminum, or titanium, and can be used in various applications, including aerospace, automotive, and construction industries. The process of installing a rivet involves placing the rivet through the holes in the metal surfaces, then using a riveting tool to deform the shaft, creating a tight, permanent joint. Rivets are valued for their strength, durability, and ability to withstand high temperatures and pressures. They are also relatively easy to install and require minimal maintenance. However, they are not suitable for applications where disassembly is required, as the rivet cannot be easily removed once installed. Rivets come in various types, including solid rivets, blind rivets, and pop rivets, each designed for specific applications and installation methods.
