Tests on blind rivets


It is important that the mechanical features data are used only as general rule, as many other factors could influence the rivet performances.

Shear Test:

The shear test on fastened rivet is made using the equipment as described
at pic. 3 of UNI EN ISO 14589:2003 specification.
The mechanical features in the catalogue are comparable with
the corresponding specifications of reference.

Tensile test:

The tensile test on fastened rivet is made using the equipment as described at pic. 5 of UNI EN ISO 14589:2003 specification.
The mechanical features in the catalogue are comparable with the corresponding specifications of reference.

Capacity test of pin retention:

This test is made as defined in the corresponding specification of each rivet type.
The test is carried out in compliance with ISO 14589:2003, to check that the remaining part of the pin into the rivet cannot be pushed out by the testing load.

Resistance test to pin pushout:

The strength for the pin pushout must be higher than 10 N when subject to test
in compliance with ISO 14589:2003 specification.
