Klamp-Tite: a tri-folding structural rivet with washer.
Klamp-Tite is a high-performing and popular rivet that stands out from others due to its unique three-leg blind-side configuration and rubber washer. Together, these features provide a large, weatherproof blind-side anchor. The structural Klamp-Tite rivet also includes a visible mechanical lock, offering extra strength to the joint.
This load-spreading rivet distributes 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.
