中文简体Stainless Steel Rivets have strong resistance to chloride ion corrosion due to their molybdenum content, and are particularly suitable for highly corrosive occasions such as marine environments, chemical industries, and food processing. It can withstand corrosive media such as acids, alkalis, and salt spray, and can maintain stable performance even when exposed to humid or chemical environments for a long time. In contrast, although aluminum rivets have their own oxide layer to prevent rust, they are prone to corrosion in strong acid, alkali, or high salt spray environments, especially in marine or industrially polluted areas. Although the zinc layer of galvanized rivets can provide short-term anti-rust protection, the zinc layer will gradually wear or oxidize after long-term use, eventually causing the internal steel substrate to rust. Therefore, in terms of corrosion resistance, Stainless Steel Rivets are far superior to aluminum and galvanized rivets.
Stainless Steel Rivets have high tensile strength and are suitable for high-load and vibration environments, such as building structures, shipbuilding, and mechanical equipment. In addition, it is resistant to high temperatures, not easy to deform, and has excellent stability. Although aluminum rivets are lightweight, they are low in strength and are not suitable for load-bearing or high-stress applications. They also tend to soften at high temperatures, affecting structural stability. The strength of galvanized rivets depends on the substrate, but the zinc coating may peel off under friction or impact, reducing overall durability. Therefore, Stainless Steel Rivets perform better in terms of high strength, high temperature resistance, and fatigue resistance.
Stainless Steel Rivets perform well in extreme environments, whether in seawater, chemicals, high temperature or low temperature environments, and can maintain stable performance without the risk of coating peeling, making them suitable for long-term use. Aluminum rivets perform well in neutral or dry environments, but are prone to failure in acid, alkali or salt spray environments, and have a short service life. The zinc layer of galvanized rivets may be damaged by scratches, friction or chemical corrosion, causing the substrate to rust and require regular maintenance or replacement. Therefore, Stainless Steel Rivets are more suitable for long-term maintenance-free applications, while aluminum and galvanized rivets have poor adaptability in harsh environments.
Stainless Steel Rivets meet food grade and medical standards, are non-toxic and non-polluting, and are suitable for food processing, medical devices, and pharmaceutical industries. Since there is no risk of coating peeling, it will not contaminate the product or the environment. Aluminum rivets may release aluminum ions after corrosion and are not suitable for certain food or medical applications. The zinc layer of galvanized rivets may fall off, causing pollution, and are not suitable for direct contact with food or pharmaceutical products. Therefore, in areas with high hygiene and safety requirements, Stainless Steel Rivets are a more reliable choice.
Stainless Steel Rivets have a higher initial cost, but due to their ultra-long service life and maintenance-free characteristics, they are more cost-effective in the long run. Although aluminum rivets are inexpensive, they are easily damaged in corrosive environments and need to be replaced frequently, increasing maintenance costs. Galvanized rivets have a lower initial cost, but the coating still needs to be replaced after wear, and the long-term maintenance cost is higher. Therefore, in scenarios where long-term use or high corrosion environments are required, Stainless Steel Rivets have better overall economic benefits.
