Expert Commentary
Standard Method for Shear Testing of Aluminum and Aluminum-Alloy Rivets and Cold-Heading Wire. This requires a double-shear jig. The engineering requirement is the precise fit between the rivet and the shear hole; MTO should offer a range of precision-ground inserts to accommodate various rivet diameters, ensuring that the shear occurs on a single plane without bending the specimen.
