About Blind Rivets
Blind rivets are permanent mechanical fasteners designed for joining materials where access is available from only one side of the assembly. They provide a fast, reliable, and cost-effective fastening solution for sheet metal, plastics, composites, and other engineering materials. Blind rivets are widely used across industries such as sheet metal fabrication, electrical enclosures, telecommunications, HVAC, transportation, furniture manufacturing, renewable energy, and general industrial assembly.
Different blind rivet designs are developed to meet specific application requirements. Standard open-end blind rivets are suitable for general-purpose fastening, while closed-end blind rivets provide improved sealing performance. Multigrip blind rivets accommodate a wider grip range, reducing inventory requirements, whereas structural blind rivets such as monobolt and interlock types offer high shear and tensile strength for demanding applications. Specialty rivets such as peel, trifold, and hi-bulb rivets are designed for use in soft, brittle, or oversized hole applications.
This technical datasheet library provides engineering drawings, dimensions, material combinations, grip ranges, mechanical properties, and downloadable PDF datasheets to assist engineers, purchasers, fabricators, and maintenance professionals in selecting the appropriate blind rivet for their application.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a blind rivet?
A blind rivet is a permanent mechanical fastener that can be installed from one side of the workpiece. It consists of a rivet body and a mandrel, which is pulled during installation to form the blind-side head.
What materials are blind rivets available in?
Blind rivets are available in various material combinations, including aluminium-steel, aluminium-stainless steel, all-steel, stainless steel, copper, and specialty alloys, depending on the application requirements.
What is the difference between standard and structural blind rivets?
Standard blind rivets are intended for general-purpose fastening applications, whereas structural blind rivets provide significantly higher shear and tensile strength, improved vibration resistance, and enhanced joint reliability.
How do I select the correct blind rivet grip range?
The grip range should cover the total thickness of the materials being joined. Selecting the correct grip range ensures proper rivet formation and optimal joint performance.
Are blind rivets watertight?
Standard blind rivets are not fully watertight. For applications requiring improved sealing performance, closed-end blind rivets or rivets installed with appropriate sealing methods should be considered.
