Klamp-Tite: a tri-folding structural rivet with washer.
Klamp-Tite® is a high-performing fastener that stands out from other high strength rivets due to its three-leg blind-side configuration and rubber washer. Together these features provide a large weatherproof blind-side anchor. This rivet also includes a "visible mechanical lock" feature that makes quality control so much easier. An Avdel® brand high performing structural rivet for peace of mind installation - set and forget.
Load-spreading rivets distribute clamping force evenly across the rear sheet through its tri-star anchor, ensuring excellent pull-through resistance. This makes it ideal for a wide range of lightweight panel applications. Additionally, its broad material grip range allows a single rivet to accommodate varying thicknesses, including curved or uneven surfaces.

Klamp Tite Rivet - Structural Load Spreading Rivets.
Klamp Tites rivets, also known as Tri-bulb rivets or Tri-fold blind rivets, are a type of fastener used in various industries for joining materials together. They are designed for applications where access to only one side of the workpiece is possible. Tri-fold rivets consist of three parts:
-
Rivet Body: The main body of the rivet, typically made of metal like aluminum or steel. This is the part that goes through the materials being joined.
-
Mandrel: A steel pin that runs through the center of the rivet body. The mandrel has a specific head at one end and a tail at the other.
-
Bulb Section: The section at the tail end of the mandrel, which is shaped like a bulb or three-pronged washer. This bulb section creates a larger bearing surface on the blind side of the workpiece when the rivet is installed.
Klamp-Tite Folding Rivets - How to Install Lab.
The installation process of a Klamp Tite folding rivet involves inserting the rivet body into a pre-drilled hole in the materials to be joined. Once the mandrel is pulled from the opposite side using a specialized rivet gun or tool, it deforms the rivet body, creating a strong, permanent joint.
Klamp Tite rivets are commonly used in automotive, aerospace, construction, and various manufacturing industries where the joint needs to be secure without direct access to both sides of the workpiece. They offer advantages like high shear and tensile strength, vibration resistance, and are easy to install with standard riveting equipment.
