Clinch Joint
RIVCLINCH® joint point geometry
The heart of our expertise stands in the clinching joint.
Depending on the clinching tool selected, the resulting joint will be either round or rectangular.
| Round joint Sr (spot Round) |
 |
- The SR round joint without cutting trough the material, is just a deformation.
- This joint is water and gas tight. Consequently it protects the coating better and provides high corrosion and fatigue resistance.
|
| Rectangular joint ST (Spot Rectangular) |
 |
- The ST rectangular clinch joint is the product of a combined cutting and deforming process.
- It is primarily suited to multi-layer (up to 5 and more), harder metals such as stainless steel and wider range of thicknesse
- This joint is also aesthetically pleasing.
