Chobert® Rivets

The Avdel Chobert® speed fastener has been an important part of Avdel since the 1930’s when it was used in the renowned Spitfire. The Chobert Speed Fastening® system provides consistent controlled clamp, ideal for soft or brittle materials. The light clamp of the Chobert rivet makes it ideal for use as a pivot pin or hose tail.

Key features and benefits
