Overview of Non-Threaded Fasteners

Provided by: Tooling U - SME

The class “Overview of Non-Threaded Fasteners” summarizes the most common types of non-threaded fasteners including pins, keys, retaining rings, and rivets and how they are used to join parts. Pins are inserted in holes to hold parts together. Keys fit into recesses in shafts and components to secure them together. Rings fit inside holes or over shafts to position components. Rivets are inserted into holes and then deformed to permanently fasten components. Non-threaded fasteners are used for many applications in manufacturing. Users who work with non-threaded fasteners must be familiar with these concepts so that they can use them safely and effectively.
