Single Cap Rivets — what to choose?

Parameter guide

What the parameters of single cap rivets mean and how to choose the right values.

The shank length determines how thick a material can be riveted. For proper setting, choose a shank about 2–3 mm longer than the total thickness of the joined material. This ensures a tight grip and a clean, even finish of the joint.

The shank diameter indicates the hole size required in the material for inserting the rivet. It affects both the joint strength and the appearance of riveting. The larger the shank, the stronger the joint.

Head diameter indicates the size of the visible part of the saddler’s rivet and affects not only the appearance but also the pressure distribution. For soft or multilayer materials or highly stressed areas, choose a larger head that resists pull-through more effectively.
