What is a "rivet"?
A rivet is a small, cylindrical fastening device used to join two or more materials together. It consists of a smooth shaft and a head at one end. After the rivet is inserted into a hole in the materials, the shaft is deformed, creating a second head that holds the materials tightly together. This deformation ensures a strong, permanent bond between the materials. Rivets are commonly used in construction, manufacturing, and aerospace due to their durability and ability to withstand high stress, especially when welding or screws are not ideal.
