Blind rivets - ALFO® FLEX
HONSEL ALFO® FLEX blind rivets have been specially optimised for often problematic riveting in very soft materials or with slightly too large drill hole diameters.
Due to the thinner wall thickness of the blind rivet sleeve, less force is required to deform the blind rivet sleeve.
This improved deformation leads to a higher residual rivet mandrel locking.
A thinner wall thickness of the blind rivet sleeve also means less influence on the hardening fluctuations caused by the annealing process. Result: The riveting function is much more consistent compared to conventional rivets.
On request, the material combinations steel/steel and stainless steel/stainless steel (A2 and A4) are available as flat, countersunk or large heads. large head with a corresponding minimum quantity.
Why ALFO® FLEX
. Compensation for excessively large drill holes
. improved residual mandrel locking
. lower breaking forces
. less wear on the tool
. higher clamping force
. ideal for soft material
