    About Rivets

    Learn how to install blind and solid rivets with recommended tools.

    Plastic Blind Rivets

    Corrosion resistant and nonconductive, these rivets are designed to join plastic, fiberglass, wood, and metal. They join material when you only have access to one side. A low-profile domed head creates a finished appearance.
    A tool for plastic blind rivets (sold separately) with a nosepiece that matches the rivet's diameter is required for installation.

    Rivet with Nylon Mandrel Installed

    Nylon Mandrel

    Nylon mandrel absorbs moisture which can affect dimensions and other properties.
    For Material Thickness—The combined thickness of material must fall within the rivet's material thickness range.
    Shear Strength—Shear strength is the amount of force it takes to break a rivet from the side.
    Tensile Strength—Tensile strength is the amount of pull a rivet can withstand without breaking. Joint strength is also affected by rivet spacing and hole size.
