2024 marks Fixi Group’s 40th anniversary and to celebrate the Italian manufacturer and distributor of fixings systems has introduced two new product lines – speed rivet technology and riveters for industrial use.
Speed rivet technology permits the installation of 50 – 60 rivets in a very short time, like a self-feeding concept.Fixi points out this technology allows a 60% – 71% increase in installation when compared to standard blind rivets.
Available in aluminium, steel and stainless steel – with standard or countersunk head and coloured type – the most requested diameters are 3.2mm, 4mm and 4.8mm but other sizes can be requested.
Coming in May 2024, the new line of riveters for industrial use from Fixi consists of four tools covering all blind rivet installation applications from 2.4mm until 6.4mm, including structural rivets. Special attention has been paid to the safety, speed of installation and weight of the new tools to enable industrial workers to work more efficiently.
These two lines complete Fixi’s wide range of blind rivets, threaded inserts, self-clinching fasteners, fasteners for plastic, wire inserts, inserts for tubes and inserts for stones and solid surfaces, as well as the related tools to install.
“2024 is the year of looking to the future with optimism and the desire to continue developing and growing together with specialised distributors in our niche market – fundamental for every solution of fixing,” comments the company. “Fixi is ready, with the technical, quality, commercial and logistics departments to collaborate .”
