Fastener SuperStore, Inc. Blind Rivet 220116

1/8 X .37-.50 (#48) Steel / Steel Blind / Blind Rivets A steel blind fastener which has a self-contained steel mandrel which permits the formation of an upset on the blind end of the rivet and expansion of the rivet shank during rivet setting to join the component parts of an assembly. 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 head of the body is slightly rounded and twice as wide as the body diameter. Dome head is the most commonly specified head style because of its low profile and neat, finished appearance. The steel mandrel gives this style rivet greater tensile and shear values than aluminum rivets with aluminum mandrels. They should be used when fastening materials with similar mechanical and physical properties.
