ABSTRACT:
Integral hem rivets fasten a front end panel, a back end panel and internal structural support members to a main sheet metal panel of a computer enclosure. The main sheet metal panel forms a cosmetic surface for the computer enclosure. The integral hem rivets used to fasten pieces to the main sheet metal panel do not blemish the cosmetic surface. In addition, the configuration of the hem conserves volume within the enclosure for mounting internal system components.
