Plastic Scrivets : description, advantages and uses

What is a Plastic Screw Rivet? 

Plastic scrivets are mechanical fasteners used in many industrial and domestic applications. It consists of two main parts: a cylindrical nylon shank and a screw. The principle of operation of the nylon screw rivet is simple. The cylindrical shank is inserted into the pre-drilled holes in the parts to be assembled. The screw is then screwed into the nylon rod until it is tight. As the screw is tightened, the nylon rod deforms and locks between the two parts, ensuring a strong, durable joint.

The benefits of our Rivets

There are many advantages to our plastic scrivets. Firstly, they are quick and easy to install, requiring only basic tools such as a drill and screwdriver. Furthermore, nylon is a light but strong material. This makes for a solid assembly while reducing the weight of the structure. Nylon is also a corrosion-resistant material, making it ideal for use in damp or corrosive environments. In addition, nylon screw rivets offer a good seal, making them suitable for outdoor use or in applications requiring protection from contaminants. In addition, nylon is an electrical insulator, which is particularly useful in electrical installations.

Applications for our Scrivets

The plastic scrivet is often used in the construction industry. They are used to assemble sheet metal, plasterboard or lightweight panels.

Thanks to their strength and ease of installation, these plastic fasteners are very popular. For example, for light frameworks, partitions or false ceilings. What’s more, nylon is a non-conductive material, making them perfectly suited to electrical applications. In industry, nylon screw rivets are widely used for assembling metal and plastic parts. Their resistance to corrosion makes them the preferred choice for use in damp environments or those subject to temperature variations. In addition, nylon rivets limit vibration and provide an effective seal, making them ideal fasteners for sensitive machinery or equipment.
