Robust blind rivets for versatile applications
These blind rivets with a diameter of 4.8 mm and a length of 10 mm are designed for securely joining materials with a thickness between 4.5 and 6.0 mm. The combination of an aluminium sleeve and a steel mandrel ensures a strong and durable fastening.
Technical specifications
- Sleeve diameter: 4.8 mm
- Sleeve length: 10 mm
- Clamping range: 4.5 - 6.0 mm
- Sleeve material: Aluminium
- Mandrel material: Steel
- Pre-drilling: 4.9 mm
- Head diameter: 9.5 mm
- Shear value: 1690 N
- Tensile strength: 2230 N
Application possibilities
These blind rivets are ideal for situations where you only have access to one side of the material to be fastened. They are often used in the automotive sector, construction, and metalworking for joining thin sheets, profiles, and other components.
Installation instructions
- Preparation: Drill a hole with a diameter of 4.9 mm at the desired location.
- Placement: Insert the blind rivet through the hole and use a suitable rivet tool to pull the mandrel until the sleeve deforms and the materials are firmly joined together.
- Finishing: Remove the excess mandrel and check the connection for strength.
Advantages of aluminium/steel blind rivets
- Lightweight: The use of aluminium makes the rivets light, which is useful in applications where weight is important.
- Strength: The steel mandrel provides high tensile strength and shear value, resulting in a reliable connection.
- Corrosion resistance: Aluminium offers good resistance to corrosion, extending the lifespan of the connection.
