Key features

• •Open end blind rivets are tubular rivets with a mandrel through the center. The entire rivet assembly is inserted into a hole drilled through the parts to be joined, and a specially designed tool is used to draw the mandrel into the rivet. This expands the blind end of the rivet and snaps off the mandrel.
• •Dome head is the most commonly specified rivet head style because of its low profile and clean finished appearance. It is slightly rounded and twice as wide as the rivet body diameter.
• •Made of Aluminum Alloy 5056, 5154, or equivalent. Aluminum alloys have excellent corrosion resistance.
• •The steel mandrel is pulled into or against the rivet body, breaking at or near the junction of the mandrel shank and its upset end. The steel mandrel gives this style of rivet greater tensile and shear values than aluminum rivets with aluminum mandrels.
• •An aluminum blind fastener which has a self contained mechanical feature (a mandrel) which permits the formation of an upset on the blind end of the rivet and expansion of the rivet shank during the setting to join the component parts of an assembly
