Key benefits Reliable electrical conductivity: copper material maintains low electrical resistance for dependable current transfer. Corrosion resistant: high-quality copper reduces oxidation and extends service life in many environments. Secure, permanent joints: the rivet shaft can be upset after insertion (beaten, pressed, or turned) to form a strong, tamper‑resistant closure. Cold-formable and adaptable: can be molded cold to create tight seals without heat, and the round head can be upset or hardened in appropriate applications to increase size and holding strength. Material and performance Material: high-quality copper, corrosion resistant and electrically conductive. Performance: suited for low-resistance electrical connections and long-term exposure where oxidation is a concern. Forming: designed for cold forming (upsetting) so you can create a permanent closure using hand or machine riveting methods. How it secures and functions Installation: insert the rivet through the parts to join, then upset the protruding shaft end by beating, pressing, or turning to form the finished head and lock the parts together. Adjustable upset: round head rivets can be hardened or upset in some applications to increase the expanded head size and improve clamping force. Closure type: cold molding produces a dense, stable closure without the need for heating or soldering. Compatibility and usage notes Best for joining thin metal components, electrical terminals, and conductive assemblies where maintaining electrical continuity is important. Compatible with standard riveting hand tools, presses, or hammer-and-dolly techniques for cold forming. Choose rivet diameter and length appropriate to material thickness and joint design (select sizes based on your application requirements). Practical use scenarios Electrical terminal connections: secure lugs, straps, or terminals to panels or bus bars where low resistance and corrosion resistance are required. Grounding straps and bonding: create durable, conductive joints on grounding straps, chassis connections, or equipment ground points. Small electrical assemblies and repairs: ideal for repairing or assembling vintage electronics, control panels, or any application needing a conductive, permanent fastener. Why this rivet stands out Combines copper’s natural electrical and corrosion advantages with the practical benefits of cold forming and upset closure. Simple installation methods (beating, pressing, or turning) make it practical for workshop, field, and production environments. Produces secure, conductive joints without soldering, maintaining conductivity while minimizing heat exposure to components.
