Pop Rivets Standard Flange Aluminium/Steel Dome Head

Description

An aluminum blind fastener which has a self-contained steel mandrel which permits the formation of an upset on the blind end ofthe rivet and expansion of the rivet shank during rivet setting to join the component parts of an assembly. The steel mandrel ispulled into or against the rivet body, breaking at or near the junction of the mandrel shank and its upset end. The head of the bodyis slightly rounded and twice as wide as the body diameter.
Applications/AdvantagesDome head is the most commonly specified head style because of its low profile and neat, finished appearance. The steel mandrelgives this style rivet greater tensile and shear values than aluminum rivets with aluminum mandrels. They should be used whenfastening materials with similar mechanical and physical properties.
MaterialRivet: Aluminum Alloy 5056 or 5154 or equivalent alloy. Rivets have no additional finish except for sizes #42 & 44 which are alsoavailable painted white. Note: Some manufacturers use aluminum alloy 5052 which is acceptable but will lower the shear, tensileand mandrel break load standards to those of aluminum rivets with aluminum mandrels.Mandrel: Carbon steel 1006 or equivalent. May be furnished plain or with a protective coating, at the option of the manufacturer.
Shear StrengthRivets shall have ultimate shear loads not less than the minimum ultimate shear loads specified for the applicable size given in theabove table.Tensile StrengthRivets shall have ultimate tensile loads not less than the minimum ultimate tensile loads specified for the applicable size given inthe above table.Mandrel BreakLoadWhile the rivet is being set, the axially applied load necessary to break the mandrel shall be within the limits specified for theapplicable rivet size given in the above table.
