Open-End Rivets

Hollow blind rivets pre-assembled onto a headed pin or mandrel, POP open-end rivets, when set, resemble conventional tubular rivets. Unlike tubular rivets, however, the mandrel head is retained within the body of the rivet.

Features and benefits:

• Wide range of diameters
• Wide range of lengths suitable for material thicknesses up to 26mm
• Countersunk (120°) heads available
• Break-head mandrels available in most sizes
• Large-flange rivets, giving wide load spread, available in aluminum alloy and nickel-copper alloy
• Nickel-copper rivets particularly suited for marine and other corrosive atmospheres 

Providing strong, low-cost fastenings, POP open-end rivets are suitable for most industrial riveting applications where materials to be fastened do not have high load-bearing requirements.
