About Installing Blind Rivets
More
Choose-a-Color Domed Head Blind Rivets
Select a color to make your rivets stand out or blend in. These rivets join material when you only have access to one side. Made of aluminum, they are lightweight, nonmagnetic, and have good corrosion resistance. The low-profile domed head creates a finished appearance.
The combined thickness of material must fall within the rivet's material thickness range. Shear strength is the amount of force it takes to break a rivet from the side, and tensile strength is the amount of pull a rivet can withstand without breaking. Joint strength is also affected by rivet spacing and hole size.
A blind rivet tool (sold separately) with a nosepiece that matches the rivet's diameter is required for installation.

Choose-a-Color Wide-Thickness-Range Domed Head Blind Rivets
Select a color to make your rivets stand out or blend in. These rivets grip a much wider range of material thicknesses than standard blind rivets. Made of aluminum, they are lightweight, nonmagnetic, and have good corrosion resistance. Use to join material when you only have access to one side. The low-profile domed head creates a finished appearance.
The combined thickness of material must fall within the rivet's material thickness range. Shear strength is the amount of force it takes to break a rivet from the side, and tensile strength is the amount of pull a rivet can withstand without breaking.

Choose-a-Color Large-Diameter Domed Head Blind Rivets
Select a color to make your rivets stand out or blend in. These rivets have a 50% larger head diameter than standard domed head blind rivets, distributing pressure where the head meets the material surface. Use for covering irregular holes as well as extra holding power when fastening soft, thin materials to a rigid backing. Made of aluminum, rivets are lightweight, nonmagnetic, and have good corrosion resistance. They join material when you only have access to one side.
