Aerospace Rivets
Primarily used to fasten aerospace skins to the sub-structure
Concerned mainly with shear and tension loads. Two types of rivets:
– Solid Rivet– Blind Rivet

Aerospace Solid Rivets - Identification
Rivets manufactured in accordance with the AN/MS standards are identified by a four part code:
1. AN or MS specification and head type
2. one or two letters that indicate the material
3. shank diameter in 1/32nd inch increments
4. a dash followed by a number that indicates rivet length in 1/16th inch increments.

• Aircraft rivets are made of many materials, and come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes
• How do you select the right size?
• How do you select the right material?
•We must know what the part number tells us…

• Use 1/8” rivets with a #30 (.1285”) drill bit
![Page 15: An Aerospace Manufacturing Perspective Aerospace Fastener Applications Part 2 1](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020716/5516301455034694308b5fae/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Aerospace Solid Rivet Installation
15
• Deburr the holes by rotating (by hand) a much larger drill bit in the holes
• This removes any metal shavings caused by drilling

• Position the pieces together and secure using Clecos
•Clecos maintain proper alignment of the pieces while rivets are being installed

Aerospace Solid Rivet Installation
17
• Place the rivet in the hole
• Make sure you are using the correct size, material, and type of rivet
![Page 18: An Aerospace Manufacturing Perspective Aerospace Fastener Applications Part 2 1](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020716/5516301455034694308b5fae/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Aerospace Solid Rivet Installation
18
• Align the rivet gun on the rivet head
• Hold the bucking bar on the opposite end of the rivet
• Pull the trigger on the rivet gun to hammer the rivet in place
![Page 19: An Aerospace Manufacturing Perspective Aerospace Fastener Applications Part 2 1](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020716/5516301455034694308b5fae/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Aerospace Solid Rivet Installation
Solid rivets can be installed using a rivet squeezer instead of a pneumatic rivet gun
The squeezer is hand operated
The squeezer uses various inserts depending on the type and size of rivet being installed

Aerospace Blind Rivets
Used when you cannot physically access one side of the work
Blind rivets are hollow, and thus weaker than solid rivets To retain strength of the joint:
– stronger material, larger diameter rivets, or more are necessary and of course
20–50% heavier than a solid rivet because of steel stem

Aerospace Rivets – Fuselage Repair
22
•Note that solid fasteners are used except in the middle of the patch
• Why would you use blind fasteners in this application?
• Exterior of a riveted patch fuselage skin patch

Aerospace Rivets – Fuselage Repair
23
•Because the stringer on the interior of the fuselage prevents the bucking a solid rivet requires
• Blind rivets are the only option when access is restricted
• Interior of a riveted fuselage skin patch

Aerospace Fasteners Material Selection
Background Some factors to be considered before material selection
are: The max. and min. operating temperaturesThe corrosiveness of the environmentFatigue and impact loading
Always try to use standard fasteners, such as AN, MS, MIL, NAS, SAE

Basic Aerospace Fasteners Application
The basic applications (or needs) for aerospace fasteners are:– Shear – Tension– Fatigue– Fuel tightness– High temperature– Corrosion control

Aerospace Fasteners Testing
Analyzing a Joint– Calculate all the load required for each type of
joint failure: Rivet Shear Sheet Tensile Bearing Sheet Shear
– Failure will occur in the mode that corresponds with the lowest load carrying capability.
