COMPRESSION RIVETERS
For maximum power the combined length of the two rivet sets must be of the
correct length.
Determine the correct lengths as follows:
Figure 1: When two cupped rivet sets are used:
The length of the body dimensions of the two rivet sets (A1, A2) should equal the
closed height dimension of the yoke (H) minus the total thickness of material being
riveted together.
Figure 2: When one cupped set and one flush set are used:
The length of the body dimensions of the two rivet sets (A1, A2) should equal the
closed height dimension of the yoke H minus the total thickness of material being
riveted (M) and the height of the finished rivet head (Z) compressed by the flush
set (A).
Figure 3: When two flush sets are used:
The length of the body dimensions of the two rivet sets (A1, A2) should equal the
closed height dimension of the yoke (H) minus the overall length of the rivet (L)
after it is compressed.
If necessary, select rivet sets a little short and shim to the
correct length using spacer shims.
