RS PRO Dome Head Standard Open Blind Rivet


RS PRO introduces a fantastic range of dome head standard open blind rivets. Designed to be easily installed and able to secure joints with short clamp lengths, these rivets are engineered to create a permanent mechanical fastening, they expand into a pre-drilled hole to create a strong and solid hold. The blind rivet can be installed entirely from one side of the material when access is limited to the fixing, unlike machine screws and nuts. Similar to Multigrip rivets, these rivets are particularly suited to softer materials and thin sheet metals. The domed head is the most common and multifunctional style.
Made from aluminium to ensure weather proofing and corrosion resistance to elongate the life of your rivets whilst keeping it lightweight and strong. These aluminium rivets have a wide grip range with excellent load spread setting and mandrel locking system.
Used predominantly in modular buildings, portable wash facilities and plastic pallet and storage solutions.

Features and Benefits


  • Made from aluminium for solid rivets and structural strength

  • Easy and clean installation

  • Can be used where only one side of the application is accessible

  • Increased grip range 10 mm – 11.5 mm

  • Creates a permanent and high tensile structural rivet joint with little effort

  • Body length 16 mm

Applications


Rivets are mechanical fasteners that consist of a smooth cylindrical shaft with a head on one end and tail at the opposite end to the head. On the installation, a riveter places a rivet in a pre-drilled hole, and the tail is set or bucked (i.e. deformed) with a rivet gun, rivet tool or pneumatic hammer so that it expands to about 1.5 - 2 times the original shaft diameter, holding the rivet in place. They are used to permanently join two steel, aluminium or copper plates usually in mechanical applications where it is imperative that joints do not become loose and cause failure. They are especially suited for restricting delicate, thin materials and generally fragile connections. Most common, everyday rivet applications include:
Building and construction
White goods
Transportation and infrastructure
Woodworking and decorative finishing
Fine metalwork
Aviation, aerospace, and automotive
