Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can these be used on thick wood?

These are primarily designed for thin sheet metal or plastic; they are not suitable for structural wood joining.

What size drill bit should I use?

You should use a 3.3mm or 3.4mm drill bit to allow for a proper clearance fit.

Are these rivets waterproof?

While they are corrosion-resistant, they are not hermetically sealed. Apply a silicone sealant if a watertight connection is required.

Can I use these with a cordless rivet gun?

Yes, they are compatible with standard manual, pneumatic, and cordless rivet guns that accept 3.2mm rivets.

What is the material composition of these rivets?

They are made of high-quality aluminium alloy, providing a balance of strength and ease of installation.

How many rivets come in one box?

This product comes in a bulk pack containing 800 individual rivets.

Troubleshooting

Rivet will not set or head does not flatten

Ensure the rivet gun nozzle is the correct size for a 3.2mm rivet and that the mandrel is fully inserted.

Material layers are loose after riveting

Ensure the materials are firmly clamped together before beginning the installation process.

Mandrel snaps off prematurely

Check that the drill hole size is accurate and not too tight, which can cause excessive strain on the rivet.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-volume box quantity perfect for repeat tasks
  • Aesthetically pleasing dome head profile
  • Highly resistant to corrosion and environmental degradation
  • Simple, quick installation process

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy-duty structural load-bearing
  • Requires a specific hole diameter for proper fitment
  • Manual tools may require significant hand strength for repetitive use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, drill a pilot hole in your materials that is slightly larger than the 3.2mm rivet shank. Insert the rivet head through the hole, and place the nose of your rivet gun over the mandrel. Actuate the tool until the mandrel snaps off, leaving a perfectly seated rivet. No specialized maintenance is required; simply store the rivets in a dry environment to maintain their corrosion-resistant properties. Always match your rivet gun's nozzle to the 3.2mm diameter to ensure a smooth break-off of the mandrel.
