A blind rivet stud consists of a blind rivet nut and a bolt that are joined together by welding or crimping. Both parts can be produced in-house so that quick and flexible implementation of individual solutions in development and production is guaranteed.
Blind rivet studs offer multiple benefits:
Blind rivet threaded studs principally work in the same way as blind rivet nuts. It is only necessary to replace the threaded mandrels of the setting device with threaded sleeves (interior threads).
The sleeve of the blind rivet bolt is inserted into the prepared borehole and deformed by the stroke of the tool. Knurled types or versions with (partial) hexagonal shaft are available to decrease the danger of the fasteners rotation in the hole.

2. Screwing into the device nose piece
3. Insertion into the take-up hole of the workpiece
4. Riveting by tightening
5. Spindling of the blind rivet stud
6. Lowering the installed RIFBOLT® blind rivet stud
As with all other blind rivet products, processing is possible on parts that are accessible from only one side and is quick without damaging the surface - for example, with our standard tools for blind rivet nuts from the VNG Series.
Blind rivet studs are an outstanding alternative to the classic welded stud/-bolt and are being increasingly used accordingly, also as substitution.
