Product Information

Full details

The JRP Riveting Products 6.4 x 10.5mm Steel Dome Head Rivets are designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts in the construction and manufacturing sectors who require a robust, permanent fastening solution for heavy-duty structural projects. These rivets provide exceptional strength and a secure, stable hold thanks to their high-quality steel construction and classic dome head profile, allowing for efficient assembly. One caveat to keep in mind is that these are designed for specific structural applications, so you should ensure the 6.4mm diameter and 10.5mm length are appropriate for your material thickness before installation.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the diameter of these rivets?

These rivets have a shank diameter of 6.4mm.

Can I use these for wood projects?

These are primarily designed for metal-to-metal structural applications. Using them in wood may not provide the necessary expansion required for a secure grip.

Are these rivets waterproof?

While the dome head design creates a tight seal, they are not inherently waterproof. A sealant may be required for applications where moisture ingress must be prevented.

What tools do I need to install these?

You need a rivet gun (manual, cordless, or pneumatic) compatible with 6.4mm rivets and a drill for creating the pilot holes.

Can these be painted?

Yes, these steel rivets can be painted or powder-coated to match the color of your project materials.

Are these reusable?

No, blind rivets are a one-time use fastener and must be drilled out if you need to disassemble the joint.

Troubleshooting

Rivet head does not pull tight against the surface

Check that the hole is not too large and verify that the rivet gun nosepiece is fully pressed against the rivet head during actuation.

Mandrel breaks before the rivet is fully set

Ensure the material thickness is within the specified range for the rivet length and check that the rivet gun is not being used at an angle.

Difficulty inserting the rivet into the hole

Verify the drill bit size used was accurate and ensure there are no burrs or shavings left in the hole from the drilling process.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-strength steel provides superior load-bearing capacity
  • Dome head design offers excellent material pull-through resistance
  • Standard size allows for compatibility with most pneumatic and manual rivet guns
  • Provides a permanent, vibration-resistant connection

Cons

  • Requires a specific rivet gun for proper installation
  • Not suitable for applications requiring removal or frequent adjustment
  • Steel material can be susceptible to corrosion if not treated or painted in high-moisture environments

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, ensure your rivet tool is fitted with the correct size nosepiece (6.4mm). Before drilling your pilot hole, use a drill bit slightly larger than the rivet diameter (typically 6.5mm to 6.6mm) to ensure the rivet passes through the material smoothly. For maintenance, while the steel is robust, it is recommended to clean the installation area of debris before fastening to ensure a flush fit. In outdoor or corrosive environments, it is good practice to apply a touch of paint or a protective sealant over the dome head after installation to prevent surface oxidation.
