Rivet Sealed FAPS

Description

A rivet sealed with FAPS refers to a rivet that has been sealed using a process involving FAPS (Formed-In-Place Gasket). This method involves applying a liquid sealant or gasket material to the surface of the rivet or to the area around the rivet before installation. When the rivet is installed and set in place, the sealant forms a tight and secure seal around the rivet, preventing the ingress of moisture, dust, or other contaminants and providing additional protection against corrosion or leaks. Rivets sealed with FAPS are commonly used in applications where a watertight or airtight seal is required, such as in automotive manufacturing, aerospace, electronics, and construction, among others. This sealing method ensures that the integrity of the joint is maintained over time, enhancing the overall reliability and performance of the assembly.
