Avdel Chobert Speed Fasteners

Rivetwise can supply you with the entire range of products from Stanley Engineered Fastening including the Avdel Briv Speed Fasteners.

The Chobert speed fastener has a renowned history dating back to the 1930's when it was used in the famous World War II Spitfire single-seat fighter planes. With easy installation and lower in-place costs than welding or nail rivet techniques, the Chobert has remained a highly-used speed fastener because it provides a consistent controlled clamp, and is ideal for soft or brittle materials.

Available in various finishes, including the hot tin dipped brass option for ease of soldering and good electrical continuity.

Placement occurs using a unique repetition mandrel system for high speed assembly. The Chobert can also be bowl fed for larger volume applications using automated equipment.
