Rivscrew®

The Avdel Rivscrew® Speed Fastening® system is a threaded, removable speed fastener that combines the speed of rivet placement with the benefits of being able to remove and re-fasten. Using a Rivscrew rivet removes the need for costly tapping or thread forming operation whilst creating a higher vibration resistant ‘thread lock’ compared to standard screws.

Key features and benefits

• Expands radially during installation to form a thread in host material
• Removable for servicing with a hex key and reusable
• Various lengths available providing high clamp loads
• Placed using a hexagon mandrel which expands the threaded diameter radially, adjacent to its six corners.
• Providing a higher vibration resistant “thread lock” in the parent material compared to standard screws
• Can be used to fasten most materials up to Vickers hardness 105 Hv5
• Eliminates the need for costly tapping or thread-forming operations
• Bright tin plated steel option for ease of soldering and increase electrical conductivity
• Placed using a unique repetition mandrel system for high speed assembly
• Can be bowl fed for larger volume applications using automated equipment
