The AUVECO 15684 Peel Type Rivet is an essential fastener engineered for professional automotive and industrial applications. Designed by AUVECO - Auto Vehicle Parts LLC, this rivet provides a reliable and secure solution for fastening in soft, brittle, or thin materials where conventional rivets may fail. Its unique peel-type design ensures an OE fit and function, distributing clamping force broadly to prevent pull-through and create a durable, vibration-resistant joint.
Key Features
- Optimized for Soft Materials: Specifically designed for enhanced support in brittle, soft, or thin materials like plastics, rubber, wood, laminates, and lightweight panels.
- Superior Load Distribution: The rivet's mandrel splits the body into multiple legs or petals on the blind side, creating a large bearing surface that spreads the load evenly and reduces material distortion.
- Effortless One-Side Installation: Allows for quick and secure fastening when access is limited to one side, simplifying assembly processes for technicians.
- Vibration-Resistant Connection: Forms a strong, tamper-resistant, and vibration-resistant joint, ensuring long-lasting performance in dynamic environments.
- High-Quality Construction: Manufactured with an aluminum rivet body and a robust steel mandrel, providing professional-grade durability and strength.
- Made in USA: Guarantees adherence to high manufacturing standards.
Applications
This versatile peel-type rivet is widely utilized across various professional settings. In automotive repair, it is ideal for securing window regulators, door lock assemblies, plastic door panels, dashboards, and headliners. It is also commonly used in structural repairs, such as attaching rocker panels or specialized body work, and is a preferred choice for motorsports chassis builders for reliably fastening multiple layers of sheet metal in race car bodies. Beyond vehicles, the AUVECO 15684 is effective for joining lightweight composite or ABS plastic housings, HVAC components, and in appliance assembly. Its ability to fill oversized or irregular holes makes it particularly useful for repairing existing rivet holes that have become enlarged.
