Avex vs Cheap Pop Rivet

Avex rivets offer superior holding strength compared to traditional pop rivets due to their design. As an Avex rivet is pulled, the rivet is pulled inline with itself instead of bending and falling over crooked like a normal pop rivet.

I worked years in aviation there are so many fasteners that common people don't know about and thats a shame cause the best bolt can be smaller and still be stronger than the hardware store option.

Nice video. A blue Chevy II was at Detroit Autorama that you built. I got to see it up close. You do amazing work. This is the first video I watched here, and I definitely subscribed. I will probably remember this video forever, lol. You seem cool to hang out with. The people around you are lucky. Have a great weekend.

Although if Shawn Ellington calls he very well get the pop rivets tossed into a large box with a ton of packing peanuts? (insert sarcastic laughing here)

It would be nice to see tests done on both tensile and shear strength of each rivet.

@kyleteal5888 6 ай бұрын

I agree with its a better product. My question is why wouldn't running a washer on the backside of the rivet, give it just as much bite on the material? Especially if you crush the backside with a hammer.

@Timmcamis 6 ай бұрын

If you have access like that, then a smash rivet may be a better option. This is mostly for instances where you don't have access to the back side.

How do you know that Avex isn't made in China

@Timmcamis 6 ай бұрын

They probably have knock offs but we don't buy those.

@matthewmoseng4321 6 ай бұрын

Are you asking how to identify a avex rivets county of origin? or are you a China operative try to infiltrate America and brainwash us all into thinking that China makes quality products and there our friends?

I don’t understand the logic of a video spent verbally describing an object that you have right in front of you, instead of just showing it.
