Semi Tubular Rivets
Semi-tubular rivets (also known as tubular rivets) are essentially the same as solid rivets, but with a shallow hole at the tip, opposite the head. This hole causes the tubular portion of the rivet (around the hole) to roll outward when force is applied. This reduces the amount of force needed for installation—tubular rivets require roughly ¼ the force of solid rivets.

- Use the Right Size Rivet
- Use a Flat Surface
- Use the Right Tool
- Use a Light Touch
- Use a Support Block
What is the Difference Between Solid Rivets and Semi-Tubular Rivets?
Solid rivets and semi-tubular rivets are two types of fasteners used for joining materials together, but they differ in a few important ways.
Solid rivets are made from a single piece of material, and they have a cylindrical shape with a head on one end and a tail on the other. To install a solid rivet, a hole is drilled through the materials being joined, and the tail of the rivet is inserted into the hole. The tail is then upset, or deformed, using a hammer or other tool to create a second head on the opposite side of the materials, locking the materials in place. Solid rivets are often used in heavy-duty applications where maximum strength is required, while semi-tubular rivets are commonly used in applications where a secure joint is needed but weight and cost are also important factors.
Semi-tubular rivets, on the other hand, have a hollow or partially hollow shank, with a head on one end and a partially-formed head on the other. They are installed in a similar manner to solid rivets, with a hole drilled through the materials being joined and the shank of the rivet inserted into the hole. The partially-formed head is then finished using a rivet setting tool, creating a secure joint.
