| Type: | Blind Rivet |
| Definition: | A revolutionary fastener, the blind rivet is so named because it can be installed when you don't have access to-or can't see-the back side of the item being riveted. |
| Description: | Blind rivets, a.k.a. break stem rivets, are tubular fasteners with a mandrel through the center. Blind rivets are inserted into drilled holes in the parts to be joined, and a special tool is used to draw the mandrel through the body of the rivet. The blind end expands, and the mandrel is snapped off. |
| Application: | Blind rivets, also commonly referred to as POP Rivets, are mainly used in applications where there is no access to the rear (blind side) of the joint. They are used to fix together hard materials such as sheet metal and metal objects when you have access to only one side of the material. Rivets have a two-piece construction; one is called the rivet body, shell, or hat and another is called the stem or mandrel. Solid rivets require access to both sides of the parts to install, whereas blind rivets only require access to one side of the parts. Blind rivets are a relatively new invention. Before they were invented, aerospace manufacturers - as well as other manufacturers - were limited to using solid rivets. Low-Cost, Lightweight, Easily Portable Tools - Manual or power tools are easy to take to the work place, reduce operator fatigue, and minimize capital expenditure. Strong, Reliable Fastenings, Independent of Operator Skills - Blind rivets don't torque out like threaded fasteners, wasting time and material. |
| Others: | Blind Rivets: Also Named Pop Rivets Blind rivets are otherwise referred to as hollow or pop rivets. These metal rivets are tubular fasteners with a mandrel through their center. |
