2117 T4 aluminum rivets (material code AD) provide excellent strength after heat treatment, making them a preferred choice for semi-trailer and transportation applications. This heat-treatable alloy can be solution treated and naturally aged to achieve optimal mechanical properties. . The 2117 alloy offers superior strength compared to other aluminum grades while maintaining good corrosion resistance for outdoor applications.

Aluminum solid rivets offer an ideal combination of light weight, corrosion resistance, and workability for marine, transportation, and architectural applications. Our extensive aluminum rivet inventory includes multiple alloys to match your specific requirements for strength, formability, and environmental resistance. With our proprietary in-house heat treatment capabilities, we can provide aluminum rivets in various tempers to achieve the exact mechanical properties your application demands. Aluminum rivets are particularly popular in semi-trailer and boat manufacturing where weight savings and weather resistance are critical. Standard lead time is 2-3 weeks.

Universal head rivets combine the best features of multiple head styles with a flat top and radiused sides, earning their "universal" designation through exceptional versatility. This hybrid design provides a good bearing surface while also maintaining a lower profile. Widely used in semi-trailer construction and aluminum ladder manufacturing, universal heads offer reliable performance across diverse applications. When you're unsure which head style will work best, the universal head often provides the ideal solution with its balanced combination of strength, appearance, and clearance.
