What are these metal "studs"?

Just a quick one...
Can someone tell me what these stud type things are?
They look like they've been punched straight through the sheet metal to secure a hasp and staple lock to a metal locker.

Did a search under various terms but my googling skills appear to be lacking today.
I've found a metal hole punch tool but not the stud things.
Cheers!

Easily removed by drilling out using a drill bit of the same diameter as the rivet.I used to be indecisive but now I am not sure.0 -
Thanks all!
I had searched rivets and saw them, didn't realise they look totally different when in place!

They come in steel too, but are a little harder to drill out. :cool:C.R.A.P.R.O.L.L.Z # 40 spanner supervisor.No problem can withstand the assault of sustained thought.Only after the last tree has been cut down.
