LPS Bossard Pvt. Ltd.

  In today's manufacturing landscape, composite and plastic materials are widely used across industries due to their lightweight, corrosion resistance, and cost-effective properties. However, these materials pose unique challenges when it comes to fastening, requiring specialized solutions to ensure strength, durability, and reliability. Bossard, a global leader in fastening technology, offers a range of innovative fastening solutions tailored to meet these challenges effectively. Challenges of Fastening Composite and Plastic Materials Fastening composite and plastic materials presents specific difficulties, including: Low Strength and Brittle Nature – Unlike metals, plastics and composites can crack, deform, or lose their structural integrity under excessive load. Thermal Expansion and Contraction – Plastics and composites expand and contract more than metals, which can affect joint integrity over time. Thread Stripping and Loosening – Traditional fasteners may not provide suf...

What you need: An effective and efficient rivet engineered for the purpose of rapid and blind-sided installation, ideal for use with different materials and thicknesses.  What we have to offer: LPS   Bossard Speed Rivets .  You have a need – and we have the product to fulfill it.  The Bossard Speed Rivet is everything you’d want it to be.

The sheer of variety of different materials this rivet can be used with is evidence of how useful this particular product can be.  Electronic applications, sheet metal applications, vehicle construction, electric components, household appliances and metal cabinets are among the applications...

Welcome to the expansive world of rivets . A rivet is a highly effective mechanical fastener comprised of a cylindrical stem on one end and the head on the other. As leaders in fastening technology, Bossard offers years of experience and knowledge designed to help you confidently make the best fastening decision for your application. Let’s take a closer look at three main types of rivets:  Blind Rivets  Blind Rivet Nuts  Lock Bolts  Blind Rivets   Also known as break stem rivets, blind rivets are simply tubular fasteners with a mandrel in the middle. To apply blind rivets, they must be inserted into pre-drilled holes in the parts that are to be joined with a special tool that draws the mandrel through the rivet’s body. Then the blind end will expand, and the mandrel will be snapped off.  One of the most desirable attributes of blind rivets is they only require a one-sided exit. This is a massive benefit because most fastening solutions will require a two-...

When looking for the right fasteners to incorporate into your design, there are many different things to keep in mind. Having a brief knowledge of fastener technology is just the beginning of choosing the correct one for your design. All fasteners are not designed equal, as they shouldn’t be, because they have many different uses. From children’s toys to airplanes, fasteners are utilized everywhere. But what fastener categories are right for your design and product? Fasteners may seem to be a small piece of the puzzle when you look at the overall design process. However, even though they may be a small component, they are very significant. If fasteners are left for last when designing, this can often lead to the need for “special” fasteners which are not common and/or readily available. Using these fasteners could result in a shorter lifetime for your product or future failures and performance issues. It is important to keep certain things in mind when determining which fastene...
