Riv-Nail™ Rivet Hinged Fasteners

High-Strength Mechanical Fasteners for Reliable Belt Splicing

The SEC Business Group Riv-Nail™ Conveyor Belt Fastening System provides a strong, reliable, and efficient solution for mechanical belt splicing and repair. Designed for demanding conveyor applications, the Riv-Nail™ system uses a pattern of two to eight self-setting rivets that clinch securely within the belt carcass to maximise pull-out resistance.

This fastening system is engineered to deliver dependable splice performance while maintaining belt integrity in heavy-duty operating environments.

Preserves Belt Carcass Integrity

Unlike conventional fasteners that cut through the belt fabric, the pilot nails divide the fabric fibres rather than cutting them, allowing the rivets to slide between the warp and fill yarns.

This design helps preserve the strength of the belt carcass while providing a secure and durable splice capable of withstanding demanding service conditions.

Compression Fastener Design

The Riv-Nail™ fastener functions as a compression fastener, meaning it does not rely solely on the belt fabric to resist pull-out forces.

This design results in a stronger mechanical connection with improved pull-out resistance and reliable performance across a wide range of conveyor applications.

Flexible Sizing and Installation Options

Suitable for belt thicknesses from 7mm to 22mm, the Riv-Nail™ system is available in multiple configurations including R2, R3, R4, R5, R5-1/2, R6, and R8 to suit different conveyor belt maintenance requirements.

Riv-Nail™ fasteners are also available in various materials to suit different operating environments and application conditions.
Manual and automated installation tools are available to support safe, simple, and consistent installation.

Features & Benefits

• Self-setting rivets in multiple patterns maximise splice strength without damaging the belt carcass.
• Pilot nails separate belt fibres instead of cutting them, preserving belt strength.
