Seeking suggestions for mechanical fastener between fiberglass reinfor

[Lorens]

I am doing a little project and i need to find different mechanical fastener. The idea is to add fiberglass reinforced PET plastic with aluminum by some fastener. It may need to take loads of 2,5kN till 5kN, but don't worry about that, just se this as the first step in design, so plz feed me with ideas, they can be crazy, just spam me

Also what would your opinions be about the galvanic corrosion concerning the material of the fastener.

Hi Lorens,

I used to use Bighead fasteners on GRP panels for train parts. These may be of help

If is for massproduction so it need to be cheap, do you think it would work with a self piercing rivet, since it is plastic material we r talking about ...

Hi

Probably not good for your application Bigeads are usually laminated into the grp to provide a usable fixing from the A side (clean GRP surface)

Might be still worth a look though
