Copper Domed Head Blind Rivets
Copper rivets are electrically conductive, nonmagnetic, and have good corrosion resistance. They join material when you only have access to one side. The low-profile domed head creates a finished appearance.
The combined thickness of material must fall within the rivet's material thickness range. Shear strength is the amount of force it takes to break a rivet from the side, and tensile strength is the amount of pull a rivet can withstand without breaking. Joint strength is also affected by rivet spacing and hole size.
A blind rivet tool (sold separately) with a nosepiece that matches the rivet's diameter is required for installation.

Brass Domed Head Solid Rivets
More durable than copper, brass rivets are electrically conductive, corrosion resistant, and nonmagnetic.
Installation of solid rivets requires access to both sides of the material as well as a hammer or a solid rivet tool. To achieve the most consistent results and a professional appearance, we recommend using a riveting air hammer with a rivet setter that matches the rivet's head style, and a bucking bar.

Brass Split Rivets
Brass rivets are electrically conductive and have good corrosion resistance. They require access to both sides of the material. To install, use the rounded end of a ball peen hammer to bend the legs outward to hold your material.
