Introducing the range of RS PRO Blind Rivets, designed to easily secure joints into a permanent mechanical fastening. Blind rivets are easy to install into a pre-drilled hole where they expand and create a strong and solid permanent fixing and are ideal for applications where only one side is accessible. The steel rivet design ensures weatherproofing and corrosion resistance for a longer-lasting life with optimum fastening performance, making these RS PRO rivets strong, lightweight and low cost, as well as being incredibly versatile for a wide range of fastening applications in a variety of materials.

Rivets are a type of mechanical fastener that has been designed with a cylindrical shaft with a head and tail on each opposing end. They are generally placed into a pre-drilled hole, while the other end is set with a rivet tool, rivet gun or pneumatic hammer, allowing them to expand and hold the rivet in place, which makes them really easy to install. Rivets are a low-cost, but heavy-duty method of creating a permanent join to steel, aluminium or copper sheets or plates – especially in applications where it is essential to create a secure join that shouldn’t become loose and could cause failure. Rivets are a commonly used fastener type and can come in many different styles and head types, depending on the application they are needed for. They are often used in:

• Building and construction


• Transportation and infrastructure


• Woodworking and decorative finishing


• Fine metalwork


• Aviation, aerospace, and automotive
