Rivet clinches can be roll-clinched, segmented, spun, flared or press clinched.
Tubular-hole rivets often used to pierce and clinch materials without a pre-drilled or punched work-piece hole
Rivets can also be used with a rivet cap to improve appearance of clinched end.
Semi-Tubular Rivets (also known as Tubular Rivets) are similar to solid rivets, except they have a partial hole (opposite the head) at the tip. The purpose of this hole is to reduce the amount of force needed for application by rolling the tubular portion outward.
