Description
The countersunk head style provides a smooth offside surface and sufficient clearance for moving parts which pass over the rivet head. Stainless rivets have the strongest tensile strengths, shear strengths and mandrel break-load standards of all the break mandrel rivets discussed in this section. They resist tarnishing under most atmospheric conditions and offers high strength at moderately raised temperatures. They should be used when fastening materials with mechanical and physical properties similar to stainless steel
