Production of aluminum rivets
Rivets are a non – threaded fastener, used to securely join two or more materials. They are essential in multiple sectors, from automotive to aeronautics, thanks to their ability to provide a long-lasting and reliable connection.
Vilux Viterie specializes in the production of a wide range of aluminum rivets, with customizable sizes to meet the specific needs of our customers.
Characteristics of aluminum rivets
Aluminum rivets offer a series of unique advantages that make them particularly popular in many industrial applications. Aluminum is a lightweight but robust material, capable of resisting corrosion, making it ideal for use in environments exposed to atmospheric agents. Aluminum rivets are known for their high mechanical strength , which ensures a secure and long-lasting connection.
Another key feature of aluminum rivets is their ease of installation: thanks to the malleability of aluminium, rivets can be applied without requiring complex or expensive equipment, thus reducing production and maintenance costs. We produce aluminum rivets with precise tolerances, ensuring perfect adaptation to the technical specifications required by our customers.
Applications of aluminum rivets
Aluminum rivets find wide application in various sectors thanks to their unique characteristics. In the aerospace sector, for example, the lightness of aluminum is crucial for reducing the overall weight of aircraft, improving fuel efficiency. Aluminum rivets are used to secure panels, internal structures and critical components, ensuring safety and resistance.
In the automotive sector, aluminum rivets are used to assemble body parts, frames and internal components. Their resistance to corrosion is particularly advantageous as it extends the life of vehicles, reducing the need for maintenance.
Even in the construction industry, aluminum rivets are widely used. They are used to join structural elements, coverings and panels, offering a long-lasting and weather-resistant solution. The versatility of aluminum rivets also makes them suitable for applications in the naval sector and the electronics industry, where the combination of lightness and corrosion resistance is particularly appreciated.

Production of aluminum rivets:
head types
Vilux Viterie produces a wide range of aluminum rivets, each designed with specific head types to adapt to different application needs. The choice of the type of head is essential to guarantee a safe and appropriate fixing based on the characteristics of the materials and the conditions of use.
- Countersunk Rivet: The countersunk rivet is designed to install flush with the surface of the material, creating a smooth, even finish. This type of head is ideal for applications where aesthetics and aerodynamics are important, such as in the aerospace and automotive sectors.
- Button Head Rivet: The Button Head Rivet offers greater tensile strength due to its shape which better distributes the load. It is widely used in structural applications where the strength of the fastening is crucial. The domed head also allows for quick and safe installation.
- Wide Head Rivet: The wide head rivet provides a greater bearing surface, distributing pressure over a larger area. This makes it ideal for softer or more fragile materials, avoiding damage and ensuring a stable and long-lasting hold.
- Flat Head Rivet: The flat head rivet is similar to the countersunk rivet, but its surface remains visible after installation. This type of rivet is often used in applications where a more discreet head is required, but without compromising on the strength and durability of the fastener.
- Special Rivets: We also produce special rivets that are custom designed to meet the specific needs of our customers. These may include rivets with particular shapes, composite materials or specific surface treatments to improve corrosion resistance or other mechanical properties.
