The Magical Order of Ratchet Rivets

June 25, 2010



TFC recently conjured up some of its fixing and fastening magic for the latest movie in a well known movie franchise for a Hollywood film production company featuring a bespectacled wizard.

The Sussex based fixing and fastening technical specialist was asked to provide a supply of Ratchet Rivets for the final instalment of the series of films.
 
Ratchet Rivets consist of two identical parts which when pushed together for a secure and tamper proof fixing, usually connecting two panels, making them an ideal solution for rigid or compressible material. The ratcheted thread provides a permanent, non-corrosive, fixing solution for materials of differing thicknesses, with the semi-spherical head allowing an aesthetically pleasing surface finish.
 
“We were delighted when we were contacted regarding the order. Many of our components perform a vital function within industry or manufacturing and remain magically hidden, yet their application provides cost effective solutions which meet demands from a wide range of industries, including film, and to play even a small part in such a phenomenon as this well known series is rewarding.”
