TIFAS® Star Blind Rivets

TIFAS® Star blind rivets form three folding legs on the blind side on installation. These large-shaped folding legs evenly and sparingly distribute the resulting clamp force across the riveted material.

What’s more, the large footprint created by the folding legs superbly prevents the rivet from being pulled all the way through very soft, porous or brittle components. The captive mandrel prevents setting errors or rattles.

The unique design of the TIFAS® Star makes it capable of compensating for oversized or irregular bore diameters.

Also available in steel or aluminium with large head. TIFAS® Star blind rivets are perfectly suited for the automotive sector, e.g. plastic panelling, bodywork components and vehicle interiors, but also for every other application that is especially soft, brittle, easily deformed, or porous.
