RMS Titanic was a passenger liner that struck an iceberg on her maiden voyage from Southampton, England, to New York City, and sank on 15 April 1912, resulting in the deaths of 1,517 people in one of the deadliest peacetime maritime disasters in history.

The largest passenger steamship in the world, the Olympic-class RMS Titanic was owned by the White Star Line and constructed at the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast, Ireland. After setting sail for New York City on 10 April 1912 with 2,223 people on board, she hit the iceberg four days into the crossing, at 11:40 pm on 14 April 1912, and sank at 2:20 am the following morning.

The high casualty rate resulting from the sinking was due in part to the fact that, although complying with the regulations of the time, the ship carried lifeboats for only 1,178 people. A disproportionate number of men died due to the "women and children first" protocol that was enforced by the ship's crew.

Next year all over the world people will remember the sinking on 10 April 1912. Here in Belfast there has been a great deal of work where Titanic was built in what is now known as THE TITANIC QUARTER. When completed for the Anniversary there will be a Museum and in this will be a floor furnished just as Titanic was and it is expected this will be used by happy couples wishing to get married there. All this helps to keep the Titanic story alive throughout the world.

The Belfast Titanic Gift Shop online have added two more unique products to our already vast Titanic collection. A 401 Basic Rivet Set alongside the Premium 401 Rivet Set.

The 401 Rivet is an exact reproduction of the rivets used to fasten the Titanic‘s massive hull plates to her frames, precise in every dimension and characteristic. The 401 Rivet is 3 3/4″ long, with a shank diameter of 1″ and head diameter of 1 3/4″. Each one weighs just over 1 pound.

Every effort has been made to ensure that these rivets are as accurate as possible: the dimensions were provided by Harland and Wolff the Belfast Shipyard were RMS Titanic was built, confirmed by Mark Chinrside, who is recognized world-wide as one of today’s premier authorities on the engineering of the Olympic-class ships; the metal composition was determined by a metallurgical analysis done in 1998 on rivets recovered from the wreck of the Titanic–the metal itself is AISI 1018 iron.

Now you have the opportunity to own a 401 Rivet.

The Basic Set includes the 401 Rivet, packaged in a red velvet drawstring bag, accompanied by an 8 1/2″ x 14″ FAQ sheet detailing how the original rivets were used and driven, and describing how the 401 Rivet is fabricated today.

The Premium Set includes the 401 Rivet and its red velvet drawstring bag, along with a hand-finished solid oak display stand bearing the emblem of the White Star Line along with the legend "RMS Titanic No. 40" and a 24-page color illustrated booklet describing the history of rivets used in building steamships, in particular the Olympic-class ships, as well as a detailed look at the process by which the 401 Rivet is made.

“As close as you will ever get to holding a piece of the Titanic in your hand….”
