The rivet includes a shaft extending from a rear end to a front end coaxial to a central axis and having a through-hole extending coaxially therethrough. The shaft of the closing element is coaxially displaceable in the through-hole and the head of the closing element can be axially brought to rest on the front shaft end. The rivet also comprises at least two grooves on the outside, these grooves extending from the front shaft in the direction of the rear end, parallel to the central axis.
