Production of brass rivets
Characteristics of brass rivets
Brass rivets have a number of distinctive characteristics that make them ideal for multiple applications. Brass is an alloy composed mainly of copper and zinc, which gives the material corrosion resistance and good workability .
Durability
Brass offers exceptional corrosion resistance, making the rivets suitable for applications in harsh and humid environments.
Conductivity
Brass has good electrical and thermal conductivity, ideal for electrical and thermal uses.
Aesthetics
Due to its shiny, golden appearance, brass is often preferred for applications where aesthetics are paramount.
Workability
Brass rivets are easily workable and adaptable to various production needs.
Brass rivet applications
Brass rivets find use in a variety of industries, thanks to their excellent mechanical and aesthetic properties.
In the field of music , wind instruments such as trumpets, saxophones and flutes often use brass rivets to assemble the different parts. These rivets not only provide a strong hold, but also contribute to the overall aesthetics of the instrument, thanks to the shine and visual quality of the brass. Brass’s corrosion resistance is particularly advantageous in instruments that are subject to moisture and hand contact.
In the restoration of antique furniture , brass rivets are chosen for their ability to faithfully replicate the look and quality of the original materials . Restoration artisans use them to maintain the authenticity of period pieces while ensuring their structural integrity. The natural patina that brass develops over time adds a touch of authenticity that other materials cannot offer.
Luxury objects represent a further area of application for brass rivets. Designers of high fashion accessories, such as bags and suitcases , favor these rivets for their refined aesthetics and their robustness . Brass, with its natural shine, gives an elegant, high-quality appearance, perfect for high-end products that need to last over time and maintain an impeccable appearance.
Finally, in the world of model making , brass rivets are highly appreciated for the construction of naval and aeronautical models . The precision and strength of brass rivets are critical to creating detailed, long-lasting models, which require components that can withstand stress and frequent handling without damage.

Brass rivets:
head types
- Countersunk Rivets : These rivets are designed to be installed flush with the surface of the material, providing a clean, bump-free appearance. They are ideal for applications where a smooth surface is necessary, such as in the aesthetic finishes of furniture or in aeronautical structures.
- Button Head Rivets : Featuring a hemispherical head, these rivets provide increased tensile strength and are often used in structural applications. The domed head offers a robust appearance and uniform load distribution, making them suitable for uses that require solidity and durability.
- Wide Head Rivets : With a larger head surface than standard rivets, these rivets are ideal for softer or brittle materials. The wide head distributes pressure over a larger surface area, reducing the risk of damaging surrounding material. They are commonly used in wood or plastic fastening applications.
- Flat Head Rivets : These rivets feature a flat head that provides a discreet, uniform appearance. They are used in applications where aesthetics are important and where protrusions are desired, such as in vehicle coverings and decorative panels.
- Special rivets : In addition to the standard types, we also produce brass rivets tailored to specific needs. These specialty rivets can include variations in head size, shape and mechanical characteristics, ensuring customized solutions for any industrial application.
