RIVET
RIVET
Rivets / Studs:In the apparel and leather goods industry, rivets—also called clinch rivets, bag-mouth rivets, or decorative studs—are permanent metal fasteners.
They typically consist of two parts:
Cap / Head: The decorative component visible on the product surface.
Post / Nail: A hollow or solid shank that passes through the material layers and is clinched together with the cap.
Rivets are installed by riveting, compressing two or more layers (e.g., heavy fabric or leather) into a tight, permanent joint that is strong and non-removable.
Rivets (studs) are metal hardware accessories widely used on leather goods, clothing, footwear, and luggage. Composed of a cap and a base, they are tightly secured by pressing together, providing structural reinforcement and decorative design.We offer a variety of shapes, including: Dome/Round Head, Cone/Spike, Star, Square, Pyramid, Spherical, and more.
