Rivets
EJOT UK offers a targeted range of high-performance rivets, essential for creating robust, permanent joints, particularly in the construction and cladding industry. Rivets, unlike screws, deform to create a head on the far side of a joint, ensuring a non-detachable, vibration-resistant connection.
The most notable product in their portfolio is the Bulb Tite rivet. This is a speciality blind rivet designed for fastening materials like metal profiles, roof lights, and sheet overlaps, especially where access is only available from one side. Its defining feature is the body's ability to collapse and form three distinct load-bearing legs, or "bulbs," on the blind side. This mechanism spreads the load evenly across the material, making the Bulb Tite rivets ideal for soft, thin, or brittle substrates.
The bulb type rivets are typically manufactured from materials like high-grade aluminium alloy and often include a neoprene or EPDM sealing washer to ensure a long-term, weather-tight seal, which is crucial for the building envelope. This engineering focus on both mechanical strength and weather resistance is what positions the EJOT rivet range as a reliable choice for professional fastening applications.
