Product Information

Full details

The Screws City Button Round Head Rivets are designed for metalworkers, fabricators, and DIY enthusiasts who require a reliable, permanent fastening solution. These 6mm x 50mm solid steel rivets provide superior structural integrity and corrosion resistance, making them ideal for heavy-duty machinery and construction tasks. Please note that because these are solid rivets, they require a hammer or a pneumatic rivet setter and a bucking bar to install, which may be more labor-intensive than modern threaded fasteners.

FAQs

Can I use these for wood projects?

These are specifically designed for metal-to-metal connections; they are not recommended for wood as they lack the holding power of traditional wood screws.

Do I need a special tool to install these?

Yes, you need a hammer and a bucking bar, or a dedicated pneumatic rivet setter to properly 'buck' the tail of the rivet.

Are these stainless steel?

No, these are solid steel with a zinc plating for corrosion resistance.

Can I remove these rivets once installed?

No, these are permanent fasteners. Removal generally requires drilling the rivet out.

What is the diameter of the hole I need to drill?

You should use a 6mm drill bit to ensure a proper fit for these 6mm rivets.

How many rivets are in this package?

This package contains 4 rivets.

Troubleshooting

Rivet shaft bends during installation

Ensure the rivet is supported properly by a bucking bar and that the hammer strikes are square and centered.

Head does not sit flush against the surface

Check that the hole is not burred and the mating surfaces are clean of debris before inserting the rivet.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-strength solid steel construction
  • Excellent resistance to corrosion thanks to zinc plating
  • Professional-grade DIN 660 manufacturing standards
  • Aesthetically pleasing low-profile round head

Cons

  • Requires manual hammering or pneumatic tools to install
  • Cannot be easily removed once set
  • Requires access to both sides of the material for bucking

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal results, ensure that your holes are drilled exactly to 6mm using a precision drill bit. Avoid forcing the rivet into an undersized hole, as this may deform the shaft. Compatibility is high across all metal substrates, provided the combined thickness of the plates does not significantly exceed the protrusion length needed for a proper bucktail. To maintain the finish, store the rivets in a dry, low-humidity environment to prevent the zinc plating from dulling or oxidizing over long-term storage.
