Aluminum Domed Head Blind Rivets


Made of aluminum, these blind rivets are lightweight and corrosion resistant. The domed head gives your project a finished appearance.
Use these blind rivets to fasten hinges, shelves, or other assemblies where you can only access one side. They’re also commonly used to join metals that are difficult to solder or weld. For a permanent hold, the back of the rivet deforms to resist vibration and prevent overtightening and stripping.
To install these rivets, you’ll need a blind rivet tool (sold separately). Be sure to pick a tool that’s compatible with your rivet’s diameter and material. For more information on installing rivets, see About Installing Blind Rivets.
Blind rivets that meet ISO 15981 (formerly DIN 7337) comply with international dimensional standards for blind rivets.

18-8 Stainless Steel Domed Head Blind Rivets


Made from 18-8 stainless steel, these blind rivets create a strong hold even in wet and damp areas. The domed head gives your project a finished appearance.
Use these blind rivets to fasten hinges, shelves, or other assemblies where you can only access one side. You can also use them to join materials that are difficult to weld or solder. The back of the rivet deforms during installation, so it creates a permanent hold that won't loosen from vibration. It also means you can't overtighten or strip them.
To install these rivets, you’ll need a blind rivet tool (sold separately). Be sure to pick a tool that’s compatible with your rivet’s diameter and material. For more information on installing rivets, see About Installing Blind Rivets.
Blind rivets that meet ISO 15983 (formerly DIN 7337) comply with international standards for blind rivet dimensions.

Zinc-Plated Steel Domed Head Blind Rivets


The zinc-plated finish provides mild corrosion resistance. These rivets 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. 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.

Aluminum Flush-Mount Blind Rivets

Lightweight and corrosion resistant, these blind rivets are made of aluminum. Install them in countersunk holes, and their angled head sits flush with the material’s surface.
They're often used to fasten material together when you only have access to one side, such as when attaching hinges and shelves. You can also use them to join materials that are difficult to weld or solder. The back of the rivet deforms during installation, creating a permanent hold that resists vibration without the chance of overtightening and stripping.
To install these rivets, you’ll need a blind rivet tool (sold separately). Be sure to pick a tool that’s compatible with your rivet’s diameter and material. For more information on installing rivets, see About Installing Blind Rivets.
Blind rivets that meet ISO 15978 (formerly DIN 7337) comply with international dimensional standards for blind rivets.

18-8 Stainless Steel Flush-Mount Blind Rivets

With good strength and corrosion resistance, these 18-8 stainless steel blind rivets create a strong hold in damp and wet areas. Install them in countersunk holes, and their angled head sits flush with the material’s surface.
They're often used to fasten material together when you only have access to one side, such as when attaching hinges and shelves. Or, use them to join materials that are difficult to weld or solder. The back of the rivet deforms, so they create a hold that resists vibration, and can't be overtightened or stripped.
All meet either ISO 15980 (formerly DIN 7337) or IFI 114, which are standards for blind rivets.
To install these rivets, you’ll need a blind rivet tool (sold separately). Be sure to pick a tool that’s compatible with your rivet’s diameter and material. For more information on installing rivets, see About Installing Blind Rivets.
