- Brass fasteners - fasteners made of brass
- Stainless steel fasteners - fasteners made of stainless steel grades A2 and A4
- Copper fasteners - fasteners made of copper

- Steel, which can optionally be coated with zinc
- Stainless steel grades A2 and A4
- Brass
- Copper
- Aluminum
Areas of application for DIN 661 rivets
These products are used in mechanical engineering, construction, instrumentation, and the aerospace industry. The purpose of the rivet is to connect sheet materials in a permanent manner. To install the product, it is necessary to drill a through hole in the elements to be joined, the diameter of which is 0.1 mm larger than the diameter of the rivet leg.
