Round-head copper rivets — corrosion-resistant, electrically conductive, cold-formable fastening solution Key benefits Reliable electrical continuity: Copper’s high conductivity ensures low-resistance connections for grounding, terminals and other electrical joints. Long-lasting corrosion resistance: Made from high-quality copper to resist corrosion in typical service environments. Secure, permanent fastening: After insertion the shank is formed (struck, pressed or twisted) to create a robust mechanical closure that resists loosening. Flexible forming options: Can be cold-formed to produce the exact head/profile needed for your assembly, reducing secondary machining. Main features Material: High-quality copper, selected for electrical performance and corrosion resistance. Head type: Round-head rivet for broad bearing area and neat finish. Installation: Insert rivet through components, then deform the exposed shank end by striking, pressing or twisting to lock the joint. Work hardening: In some applications the rivet can be hardened by forming to increase joint durability and shear resistance. Function: Designed to be cold-formed on-site or in production to meet closure and clearance requirements without heat. Performance and compatibility Provides consistent electrical and mechanical performance when used where a permanent rivet fastener is required. Compatible with standard manual or pneumatic riveting and forming methods that create the required upset on the shank end. Suitable for fastening thin to moderate-thickness metal parts where conductivity and corrosion resistance are priorities. Typical applications Electrical assemblies: Securing terminals, lugs, bus straps and grounding connections where low-resistance joints are essential. Electronic enclosures and switchgear: Permanent fastening that maintains electrical continuity and resists contact corrosion. Fabrication and repair: Joining sheet metal components or creating permanent closures in assemblies that will be cold-formed rather than welded. What this product solves Eliminates the need for soldered or bolted electrical joints where corrosion, vibration or space constraints make other methods unreliable. Provides a simple, field- or shop-friendly method to create permanent, conductive joints without heating. Offers a corrosion-resistant fastening option that also serves as an electrical conductor. If you need a durable, conductive, corrosion-resistant rivet that can be cold-formed and reliably fastened by striking, pressing or twisting the shank end, these round-head copper rivets are designed to meet those requirements.
