BIFURCATED RIVET

A split rivet (also called a split-tail or bifurcated rivet) features two pronged “legs” at the tail. The design offers greater penetrability; during setting, the legs splay outward to bite into the substrate. It can be fixed without a backing die, providing strong grip where layer thickness varies or with fibrous materials (cardboard/fibreboard/fabric).
