A nut and bolt joint may considered temporary fastening since
the parts can easily separated required unscrewing the nut and
removing the bolt.33
Joining metals.
Special rivets are used with hand tool, shown Fig. The nut tightened secure the joint. release the broken-
off stem piece, the nose bush turned upwards and the handles opened
sharply.
Two pieces metal joined bolt and nut and machine screw and
nut are shown Fig.34. The rivet then placed the hole and the handles squeezed

Joining materials
Plastic can joined with appropriate solvent. rivet permanent fastening since the parts riveted
together cannot easily separated.34
Metal joining with pop rivets.33. The stem will fall out and discarded (d). 14. The alloy sleeve compressed and the rivet stem will break
off when the rivet set and the joint complete (c). Metals may welded,
brazed soldered, but the most popular method on-site joining met-
als electrical installations nuts and bolts rivets.
Thin sheet material such trunking often joined using pop riveter. 14. The stem the rivet pushed into the nose
bush the riveter until the alloy sleeve the rivet flush with the nose
bush (a). When
joining trunking cable trays, round head machine screw should be
used with the head inside reduce the risk damage cables being
drawn into the trunking tray.
