Rivit has added the Flooriv structural rivet to the latest edition of its blind rivets 9/1 catalogue, further enriching its wide range of fasteners for professionals.
Rivit points out that Flooriv is an ideal blind rivet for all wood-to-metal applications, especially plywood and metal plywood. Its auto shrinking head eliminates the counter punching process in plywood and dimpling in metals. Unlike screws that can be over or undertightened, Rivit states Flooriv ensures reliable installation every time.
The Flooriv rivets are available in galvanised steel with a large countersunk head, diameter 8mm, and are largely used for car floors in the auto body industry and in the transport sector.
For the installation of Flooriv, Rivit proposes the RIV511B tool, a hydropneumatic riveter with booster designed for the installation of structural rivets. RIV511B consists of a lightweight aluminium handle, connected, through a hose, to the control unit where the intensifier and the oil tank are housed – there is no nail aspiration. RIV511B is sold without the front head kit, which must be chosen based on the application needs; for the application of Flooriv rivets KIT511B/98 kit is recommended.
