Painted blind rivets


We have 5 lines for painting rivets: four for hot barrel and one for powder, allowing painting rivets according to the full RAL color palette: For the powder coating standard is glossy (70% gloss) and hot barrel is semi-gloss (50% gloss). In both methods there is a possibility of painting: Mat (30% gloss), Semi-gloss (50% gloss), Gloss (70% gloss). The need for a non-standard finish must be reported with the order. On special request, it is possible to paint according to other standards (NCS and others) – we encourage you to contact us. Thanks to the machine park we can provide short lead times – from just one working day.

Pros of powder coating:

Excellent corrosion protection – paints increase the protection of the raw metal element to the level we obtain with hot-dip zinc coating,Extended coating durability,Very good resistance to various weather conditions,Great color resistance to UV rays (longer lasting
color),It is ecological, thanks to which less waste is
created for the environment,Allows painting from 1,000 pieces of rivet in color
(smaller amounts payable),Fast delivery times (from one working day).

Cons of powder coating:

A thick (20 μm) varnish coating on the mandrel causes after 5,000 rivets the requirement to clean the jaw powder in the riveter

We offer powder coated blind rivets in all materials:
