SS 317 Rivets
What are Rivets?
Rivet fasteners are a specific type of mechanical fastener extensively used for permanent joining of materials. They consist of a cylindrical shaft with a head on one end and a tail on the other. They are installed by deforming or “setting” the tail end, which expands and creates a secure joint between the materials being fastened. Rivets offer several advantages over other fasteners:
Permanent Joining: Provides a permanent and secure connection, ensuring the integrity and strength of the joint.
High Strength: Offers excellent shear and tensile strength, making them suitable for applications that require structural integrity and load-bearing capabilities.
Vibration Resistance: Are resistant to loosening due to vibrations, ensuring a reliable connection even under dynamic conditions.
Corrosion Resistance: Depending on the material used, can offer corrosion resistance, making them suitable for outdoor or corrosive environments.

How Stainless Steel 317 Benefits the Quality of Rivets
Stainless Steel 317 offers several benefits when used for rivets:
Corrosion Resistance: Stainless Steel 317 exhibit exceptional resistance to corrosion, making them ideal for applications where exposure to moisture, chemicals, or corrosive environments is a concern.
High Strength: Stainless Steel 317 possesses excellent strength and toughness, ensuring reliable and durable connections in demanding applications.
Heat Resistance: Stainless Steel 317 can withstand high temperatures without losing its mechanical properties, making it suitable for applications exposed to elevated temperatures.
Aesthetic Appeal: Stainless Steel 317 provide a visually appealing finish and can enhance the overall aesthetics of the assembled structure.
Low Maintenance: Stainless Steel 317 require minimal maintenance, thanks to their resistance to corrosion, staining, and pitting.
Types of Rivets Available
Shivalik Forged & Fittings offers a variety of stainless steel 317 rivet types to meet different application needs:
Solid Rivets: Are one-piece fasteners with a solid shaft and head. They are commonly used in applications requiring high strength and a permanent connection.
Blind Rivets: Are designed for applications where access is limited to one side of the joint. They consist of a mandrel and a tubular rivet body and are set using a rivet gun.
Tubular Rivets: They have a hollow tubular shaft and are often used in applications where a permanent but detachable connection is required.
Split Rivets: Has two or more legs that can be split apart and folded over, providing a secure connection. They are commonly used in applications such as leatherwork and bookbinding.
When choosing the appropriate rivet type, consider factors such as joint strength requirements, access limitations, aesthetics, and specific application demands.
