Open End POP Rivets

General Features

The 'POP?' Open type blind rivet is a hollow rivet pre-assembled on to a headed pin or mandrel. Rivet bodies are available in a range of materials for complete workpiece compatibility. The rivets are available in pure aluminium, aluminium 2.5%, 3.5% and 5.0% magnesium alloy, copper, mild steel, nickel-copper alloy, and stainless steel and are normally supplied with Break Stem mandrels which promote retention of the head of the mandrel in the set rivet body.

Providing strong, low cost fastenings, open-end rivets are ideal for a wide variety of applications. They are available in a wide variety of materials and combinations with dome, countersunk, or large-flange head styles. A universally accepted range of rivets suitable for most industrial riveting applications where the materials to be fastened do not have high load bearing requirements.

Open-end POP rivets, when set, resemble conventional tubular rivets. However unlike tubular rivets, the mandrel head is retained within the body of the Open-End POP Rivet.
