Solid Rivets
Generally manufactured to suit individual customer's requirements, and are almost infinitely variable in terms of diameter, length, head form and material type. Considered to be the strongest of the rivet types, but requires high clinching forces.

Semi-Tubular
Preserves shear strength of solid rivet with easier clinching. Generally available with oval, countersunk or tinman heads and in a variety of sizes and materials to suit customer applications.

Tubular
Generally as per the semi-tubular, but with a fully hollow shank and is designed for lighter clinching forces.

Bifurcated
Sometimes known as split rivets, being generally used on softer materials such as leather and composite timber boards, where it acts in a self-piercing manner and can be designed to self-set. Available in a variety of sizes, head forms and material types.

They provide advantages of being able to be easily set in thin material, but have the same properties as a tapped thread in fuller thickness material.
