Product Information

Full details

Screws City Button Round Head Rivets (DIN660) are designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts requiring a permanent, high-strength fastening solution for metalwork, construction, and mechanical assemblies. Featuring a durable 4mm diameter and 30mm length, these grey zinc-plated rivets provide superior corrosion resistance and a clean, flush appearance once installed. While these fasteners offer exceptional structural integrity, please note that they require specific riveting tools for proper deformation and are intended for permanent applications that do not require disassembly.

FAQs

Can these rivets be used with a standard pop-rivet gun?

No, these are solid rivets and require a hammer and bucking bar or a specialized solid riveting tool to deform the shank.

Are these rivets suitable for outdoor use?

The zinc plating offers good corrosion resistance for moderate environments, but for harsh salt-spray or marine conditions, additional weather-resistant coatings are recommended.

What is the diameter of these rivets?

These rivets have a 4mm diameter.

Are these fasteners reusable?

No, solid rivets are intended for permanent, single-use installation and must be drilled out if they need to be removed.

What material are these rivets made of?

They are high-quality metal rivets with a zinc-plated finish for enhanced durability and corrosion protection.

Troubleshooting

Rivet head does not sit flush against the surface

Ensure the pilot hole is clean and free of burrs, and verify that the riveting tool is aligned perfectly perpendicular to the surface.

Rivet joint feels loose after installation

The rivet may have been under-driven. Ensure you are using the correct force to fully deform the shank end, or check that the hole diameter is not too large for the 4mm shank.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High structural strength for permanent joints
  • Excellent corrosion resistance due to zinc coating
  • Manufactured to strict DIN660 engineering standards
  • Professional, clean aesthetic for finished assemblies

Cons

  • Permanent fastener, cannot be removed without destruction
  • Requires professional riveting equipment
  • Not suitable for materials thinner than the shank length allows

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires a manual or pneumatic riveting hammer or a bucking bar setup, as these are solid-shank rivets. Ensure that you have access to both sides of the material being joined, as the shank must be deformed on the back side to create the locking head.

  • Compatibility: Best suited for steel, aluminum, and other soft-to-medium hardness metals.
  • Installation: Always wear safety glasses when setting rivets. Ensure the length of the rivet (30mm) is sufficient to pass through the material thickness plus enough length to form the 'bucktail' head on the back side.
  • Care: While zinc-plated, rivets should be inspected periodically in high-humidity areas. If the coating is scratched during installation, applying a touch of cold-galvanizing spray can help prevent early oxidation.
