Rivets and Rivet Guns
To securely hold the Aluminium Angle A1 Fire Rated in place, various types of rivets and rivet guns are used. Rivets are mechanical fasteners that provide a permanent joint by deforming the tail end to hold materials together.
Types of Rivets
Standard Rivets: Also known as "blind rivets," these are the most popular type used in the industry. They are available with large heads, countersunk heads, and domed heads2.
Multi Rivets: These have a high clamping capacity with the mandrel retained, commonly used in air conditioning, vehicles, and furniture industries.
Cup Rivets: Airtight, dust, and waterproof, ideal for automatic production, used in car bodies, air-conditioning, shipbuilding, and containers
.
Star Rivets: These create a large closed head, suitable for plasterboard, fibreglass, and wood
.
Tri-GO Rivets: Triple claw blind rivets that split into three parts, suitable for soft and brittle materials
.
Rivet Guns
Rivet guns are tools used to install rivets. They come in various types, including:
Manual Rivet Guns: Suitable for small diameter rivets, typically ranging from 3/32" to 1/4"
.
Electric Rivet Guns: Capable of handling medium-sized rivets, also in the 3/32" to 1/4" range, with some models supporting slightly larger rivets
.
Reaction to Fire (R2F) Standard
The Reaction to Fire (R2F) standard is a classification system that measures how a material reacts when exposed to fire. It indicates whether the material supplies fuel to the fire before the flashover. The classification system is composed of seven groups, ranging from A1 to F, where A1 represents non-combustible products and F represents easily flammable products.
A1: Non-combustible products
A2: Limited combustibility
B: Very limited contribution to fire
C: Limited contribution to fire
D: Medium contribution to fire
E: High contribution to fire
F: Easily flammable products
In addition to the main classes, there are two additional classification criteria:
S: Refers to smoke production. Products classified as S1 produce small amounts of smoke, while those classified as S3 produce larger amounts of smoke
.
D: Refers to the generation of flaming droplets. D2 is the least favourable classification
