Technical Features
- Tubular aluminum construction with mandrel center - provides lightweight corrosion resistance for outdoor applications
- Blind-side installation capability - eliminates need for back-side access during assembly operations
- Mandrel break-away design - creates consistent joint integrity through controlled expansion and snap-off sequence
- Pre-drilled hole installation - ensures precise fit when hole diameter matches rivet specifications
Applications
- Sheet metal fabrication where rear access is restricted
- Aluminum frame construction and repair work
- HVAC ductwork assembly and maintenance
- Automotive body panel attachment
- General purpose hardware fastening applications
Installation requires a specialized rivet tool to draw the mandrel through the rivet body, expanding the blind end to create the mechanical joint. The mandrel then fractures at the predetermined break point, leaving a permanent fastener connection.
