FAQs

What is the primary material composition of these rivets?

These rivets are made from a combination of durable aluminum and steel.

What size rivet tool do I need for these rivets?

You will need a standard rivet gun or powered riveter that is compatible with 3.2mm diameter rivets.

How many rivets are included in a bag?

Each bag contains 100 rivets.

Can these rivets be used outdoors?

Yes, the aluminum and steel construction offers good durability. For highly corrosive environments, consider specialized materials if extreme longevity is required.

What is the recommended hole size for a 3.2mm rivet?

Generally, the hole should be slightly larger than the rivet shank diameter. Refer to your riveting tool's manual or project specifications for precise hole sizing, typically around 3.3mm to 3.4mm.

Are these rivets suitable for structural applications?

They are suitable for many general-purpose and medium-duty applications. For heavy-duty structural components, larger diameter rivets or specialized fasteners may be more appropriate.

Troubleshooting

Rivet tool not snapping mandrel

Ensure the rivet tool is properly set up for 3.2mm rivets and that the mandrel is fully inserted into the tool's nosepiece. Check if the rivet tool requires maintenance or adjustment.

Rivet spinning or not holding securely

Verify that the drilled hole is the correct size for the 3.2mm rivet shank. Ensure the materials being joined are securely clamped together before riveting. Check if the material thickness is within the rivet's grip range.

Inconsistent rivet breaks

Inspect the rivet mandrel for any damage or debris. Ensure the rivet gun is applying consistent pressure and pulling force.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Select the appropriate rivet for your application, ensuring the material thickness is within the rivet's grip range.
  2. Drill a hole sized for the rivet's 3.2mm shank (typically slightly larger than the shank diameter).
  3. Insert the rivet through the aligned holes in the materials to be joined.
  4. Using a compatible riveting tool, align the tool's mandrel with the rivet shank and squeeze the handles.
  5. Continue squeezing until the mandrel snaps off, securing the materials.

Compatibility:

  • Riveting Tool: Requires a standard rivet gun or powered riveter compatible with 3.2mm rivets.
  • Materials: Suitable for joining various materials including sheet metal, plastic, wood, and fabric, provided they can accommodate the rivet length and shank size.

Care:

  • Store rivets in a dry environment to prevent premature corrosion, especially of the steel mandrel.
  • Clean tools regularly to ensure smooth operation.
