This video illustrates the importance of assembling a “cut-away” mock-up to
evaluate a new Orlock blind rivet solution. The Mock-up is essential to use because it is a 3 dimensional representation of what “could be” in terms of a new and improved design. A new rivet, in this case, that saves time, money and improves product value or makes it safer.
The video shows the basic operation of the Orlock Blind Rivet from Blue Pneumatic Fastening Systems. The video illustrates the unique front and
backside load bearing-distributing surfaces. These rivets also feature extra long grip ranges that allow them to replace many “threaded” fasteners like nuts and bolt. The extra long lengths aka “grip ranges” make them unique to North America and revolutionary at this time.
This video illustrates the contrast between structural and non-structural rivets. In particular, the video showcases the unique properties of the Orlock rivet from Blue Pneumatic Fastening Systems. Hear you can gain most of the basic knowledge needed to assemble products using blind rivets and in particular Orlock style rivets.
This video is a teaching aid to help would-be product designers and Blue Pneumatic Fastening Systems distributors to gain a keen eye for applications that can be improved by using special rivets. This video focuses on Orlock rivets.
This video illustrates how to manage the cost of assembly. In this case, the use of Orlock rivets
