    Aluminum Domed Head High-Strength Blind Rivets

    Image of ProductInUse. Installed. Top orientation. Contains Annotated, Border. Rivets. Aluminum Domed Head High-Strength Blind Rivets.

    Installed

    Lightweight and nonmagnetic, these rivets have good corrosion resistance. The mandrel expands the body of these rivets to completely fill the hole, providing the highest shear and tensile strengths of all the blind rivets we offer. The portion of the mandrel that's retained inside the rivet after installation won't loosen over time and fall out. Use blind rivets to fasten material when you only have access to one side. A low-profile domed head creates a finished appearance.
    A blind rivet tool (sold separately) with a nosepiece that matches the rivet's diameter is required for installation.

    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.

    18-8 stainless steel has good corrosion resistance and may be mildly magnetic. The mandrel expands the body of these rivets to completely fill the hole, providing the highest shear and tensile strengths of all the blind rivets we offer. The portion of the mandrel that's retained inside the rivet after installation won't loosen over time and fall out. Use blind rivets to fasten material when you only have access to one side.
