hi lok rivets are made up of which material?

There are several alloys to choose from including Aluminum, Stainless Steel, and Titanium, depending on the application.  Check out the website below of the manufacturing.

I would suggest that you select a particular stapler that you are interested in and "reverse engineer" it in your mind.  Does it use threaded fasteners or permanent rivets?  Imagine the riveting process being reversed (like playing a film backwards).  For example, if your stapler has a plastic piece where you press down on it, would it be easier to add that piece to all the staplers in production before assembling the entire stapler?  Try to identify the sub-assemblies (like the plastic piece) to determine the order in which the entire stapler is assembled from many parts.  Sometimes the order is mandatory and irreversible and sometimes it is arbitrary.  You could perform a similar process to figure out how an entire automobile is assembled and the entire motor would be a sub-assembly in itself.  Good luck.

This is how things are made.

The ref. lists many different steels and their physical properties. Go there and search "high carbon steel" and "high chromium steel".\nI checked the first item listed for these two searches and got:\n(for high carbon steel:)\nAISI 1055 Steel, cold drawn, annealed, 19-32 mm (0.75-1.25 in) round\nComponent    Wt. %  \nC 0.5 - 0.6   \nFe 98.41 - 98.9   \nMn 0.6 - 0.9   \nP Max 0.04   \nS Max 0.05   \nDensity 7.85 g/cc 0.284 lb/in³ \n\n(for high chromium steel:)\nCrucible AIRKOOL® (AISI A2) Tool Steel\nComponent    Wt. %  \nC 1   \nCr 5.25   \nFe 91.55   \nMn 0.85   \nMo 1.1   \nV 0.25   \nDensity 7.86 g/cc 0.284 lb/in³

All kinds of materials. But the important thing to note is, that NASA did not make the Hubble Space Telescope, by and large. This work was done by contractors.

I'll assume when you say "ceremonial use" you are talking about native american spirituality, I won't say this for certain, but I'm almost sure that no artificial products should be used, such as glues and screws etc., the few ceremonial staffs I've seen had horns attached by boring a hole thru the staff and horn and pegging it in with round dowel. Also use wet sinew wrapping and when it dries it shrinks forming a super tight connection.

Probably stainless steel.  Some are galvanized which is a zinc coating.

There are so many durable light materials that have been found or invented. but I would say Aluminium bcoz most of the industrial materials are based on Al made products (Jets, watches and cars). But carbon fibre is also a light material compared to steel. But I don't know abt the durability. Mainly use in Performance cars (Formula 1)

All meatals are made up of crystals of pure metal and other elements from which they are made up from (for example Cast Iron has iron, carbon, sulphur + others.)\n\nThese crystals vary in size, the small regular sized ones making the material generally tougher and harder than if it had larger more irregular shaped crystals which are generlly "softer" and less tough.\n\nOur piece of metal, say a round bar, can be worked through hammering and reheating into a a flat bar.  To work it, it needs to be fairly maleable, that is has fairly large crystals irregular shaped, as it is hammered these crytals are broken down into smaller more regular shaped crystal and becomes more and more difficult to work.  This is work hardening.\n\nTo continue working it the metal would be reheated and allowed to soak allowing the crystals to regrow into larger more irregular shaped ones, the work process can then start again.\n\nWork hardening can also be applied to make cutting edges on sharp instruments, leaving the rest of the material more maleable so not shattering on impact, while allowing the cutting edge to be hard enought to penetrate the surface.

ya they're aluminum alloy and the brigs & strattons they use on mowers have a cast iron cylinder liner.

The shuttle initially lifts off using solid rocket boosters(those tanks that are blown off) which are usually filled with an ammonium perchlorate (oxidizer, 69.6 % by weight), aluminum (fuel, 16 %), iron oxide (a catalyst, 0.4 %), a polymer (such as PBAN or HTPB - a binder that holds the mixture together, 12.04 %), and an epoxy curing agent (1.96 %). After the tanks are blown off with explosive bolts, the shuttle uses its own engines, which are fueled with liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen.

the common name for that is pewter. it's a cheap material for things like silverware.

Lacquer, it is made of resin. you can pick it up at basically any hardware or paint store
