DESIGN AND USAGE NOTES
There is a special Celus® Tigerbolt™ rivet nosepiece that must be used when installing the
Tigerbolt™ Rivet.
Backside Clearance
Minimum Backside Clearance must be calculated to allow room for the mandrel head. Subtract the
actual work thickness from the overall rivet length to factor the backside clearance required.
Backside Material Thickness
Because it is a “wire-draw” rivet, the Tigerbolt™ requires a backside material sheet of sufficient
thickness and rigidity to prevent hole deformation from occurring during the setting sequence.
Lubricant
Dry film lubricant applied at the factory must not be removed prior to rivet placement.
Made under license from Textron, Inc. U.S. Patent No. 4,046,053 and 4,365,495.
Tigerbolt™ is a registered trademark owned by Celus®.
Additional head styles and other alloys may be available on custom engineered orders.
