Before being installed, a rivet consists of a smooth cylindrical shaft with a head on one end. ... On installation, the rivet is placed in a punched or drilled hole, and the tail is upset, or bucked (i.e., deformed), so that it expands to about 1.5 times the original shaft diameter, holding the rivet in place.
