This detailed product description refers to a high-quality, steel self-piercing (self-drilling) rivet developed for the Wieländer+Schill XSeries professional riveting technology. This component offers an ideal solution for the professional and durable joining of sheet metal parts, especially in the field of automotive repairs and other precision metalworking applications.
A self-piercing rivet (SPR) is a fastener that enables a mechanical connection between two or more layers of sheet metal without the need for pre-drilling. Upon insertion, the pointed end pierces the top sheet, and under the action of the tool, the rivet body deforms between the tool and the anvil, creating a solid, durable, and leak-proof joint.
This specific model is made of steel and is an ideal choice for structural elements requiring high strength and reliability. The ZnSnAl coating provides excellent corrosion protection, extending the life of the joint even under adverse environmental conditions.
Main application areas:
Repair and fastening of body parts.
Lightweight metal construction projects.
Applications where thermal impact (e.g., welding) must be avoided.
Inseparable, high-load connection of two or more sheet metal layers.
The precise sizing and material of the product guarantee compatibility with the appropriate SPR riveting tools (for example, Wieländer+Schill XSeries systems).

Self-piercing riveting, as a technology, offers several advantages over traditional fastening methods, especially in modern vehicle repair where different materials (e.g., high-strength steels) meet:
High Joint Strength: The mechanical lock created by the deformation of the rivet can withstand extremely high shear and tensile forces, ensuring structural integrity.
Material Compatibility: Enables the joining of metal sheets of different thicknesses and types (including high-strength steels) without damaging the material properties due to thermal effects.
Corrosion Protection: The ZnSnAl coating provides active protection against galvanic corrosion, which is especially important for body repairs.
Fast and Repeatable Process: With a suitable pneumatic or hydraulic riveting tool, the connection can be created extremely quickly and with repeatable quality.
No Heat Effect: Since the process is a cold mechanical procedure, the material fatigue caused by welding, the formation of the heat-affected zone (HAZ), and sheet metal distortion are avoided.
Wieländer+Schill products comply with strict industry standards. Manufacturing processes are monitored by quality management systems that certify the reliability of the products.
ISO 9001: Certifies the suitability of the quality management system.
ISO 14001: Certifies the implementation of an environmental management system.
This rivet is the ideal choice for professional workshops where durable and aesthetic joints meeting OEM (factory) specifications must be created during the repair of body panels. The packaging of 200 pieces ensures an optimal quantity for frequent use.
