The B-tite rivet body folds into three separate legs forming a large blind-side head. This large bearing head evenly distributes the Bulb-Tite Rivet high clamp force in soft, thin, or brittle materials while providing high pull-through resistance. B-tite rivets generally come with a neoprene rubber washer. These are developed to solve application requirements in the pre-engineered metal building, roofing, and siding industry.
B- Tite Rivets are also called waterproof rivets
- Aluminium B-Tite Rivets
- Steel B- Tite Rivets
