Premium Blind Rivets for Fast, One-Sided Fastening
Our Blind Rivets (often called Pop Rivets) provide a versatile and robust solution for joining sheets of metal, plastic, or composite materials. The “blind” feature means they can be installed when you only have access to one side of the structure, making them indispensable for automotive repair, appliance manufacturing, and ductwork.
We manufacture rivets to the highest standards, ensuring consistent break-load for the mandrel and a clean, aesthetic finish on every joint.
- Open End Blind Rivets: The most popular choice for general-purpose fastening.
- Closed End (Sealed) Rivets: Feature a unique cup-shaped end that prevents liquid or gas leakage—ideal for tanks and marine use.
- Large Flange Rivets: Offer a wider bearing surface, perfect for securing soft or brittle materials like plastics and wood.
- Multigrip Rivets: Designed to accommodate varying material thicknesses, reducing the need for multiple rivet sizes.
| Diameter (mm) | Typical Lengths | Drill Hole (mm) | Shear Strength (Avg.) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3.2 mm (1/8″) | 6 – 15 mm | 3.3 mm | High Tensile |
| 4.0 mm (5/32″) | 8 – 20 mm | 4.1 mm | High Tensile |
| 4.8 mm (3/16″) | 10 – 25 mm | 4.9 mm | Structural Grade |
| 6.4 mm (1/4″) | 12 – 30 mm | 6.5 mm | Heavy Duty |
- Drill: Drill a hole through both materials.
- Insert: Place the blind rivet into the hole.
- Pull: Use a manual or pneumatic rivet tool to pull the mandrel.
- Set: The head of the mandrel expands the rivet body; the mandrel then snaps off at the pre-determined break point, leaving a secure joint.
- Automotive: Body panels, interior trim, and heat shields.
- Construction: Metal roofing, gutters, and cladding.
- HVAC: Securing ventilation ducts and air conditioning units.
- Electronics: Assembling chassis and server racks.
