Description

Cherry Rivets Unusual mandrel design of Cherry N Rivets holds rivet and mandrel firmly together prior to installation and insures positive mandrel retention in the installed rivet.
Attention: Avdel has changed the mandrel design for some of their Cherry "N" Rivets. The change has not effected the strength of the rivet. CHERRY N RIVETS CHERRY Q RIVETS Break mandrel rivets Conforms to MIL-R-24243 and IFI-114 Standards Structural-Self-plugging rivets LOW COST Substantial savings in installed costs can be realized when Cherry N Rivets are substituted for spotwelds, screws or bolts. HIGH SHEAR STRENGTH Cherry Q Rivet mandrel plugs the entire length of the rivet sleeve, providing full shear strength values for structural or load-bearing applications. FAST INSTALLATION Quick and easy to use with hand or power riveters, Cherry N Rivets have endless fastening applications in manufacturing, maintenance. SEALING CAPABILITY Specially designed mandrel of the Q Rivet is engineered to effect a seal, upon installation which offers resistance to leakage. UNIQUE FEATURES Unusual mandrel design of Cherry N Rivets holds rivet and mandrel firmly together prior to installation and insures positive mandrel retention in the installed rivet. VIBRATION RESISTANT Rivet sleeve curls over end of mandrel to insure its positive retention. NO MANDREL POP OUTS As the mandrel is drawn into the rivet, the end of the rivet sleeve closes in an elliptical configuration Iocking the mandrel firmly in place!
