What is a Breasted Rivet?
A nozzle rivet is a two-piece fastener commonly used in the textile and apparel industries. It is also called a "beak rivet" or "head rivet."
  • Material: Mostly made of rust-resistant metal, especially brass.

  • Structure: It derives its name from the slightly protruding, nipple-like structure it creates at the juncture. This protrusion allows the rivet to hold more firmly in the material.

  • Function: Used to join two separate pieces of fabric or leather, to embellish a product or to highlight a detail.

  • Areas of Use:

    • Clothing and Textiles: It is used especially in jeans, coats and jackets to strengthen pocket edges, seams or collar parts and to give a decorative appearance.

    • Leather Products: It is widely preferred in the production of leather accessories such as wallets, bags and belts.

  • Mounting: Nozzle rivets are mounted on the material with the help of special driving molds and press machines (hand press or automatic machine).

Nipple rivets stand out both as a functional joining element and as a decorative detail that adds an industrial and stylish look to clothing products.
