Drill, insert, squeeze the riveter until the mandrel snaps, and the joint is permanent. Stainless is what takes this box outdoors: an aluminium rivet in a steel panel sets up a corrosion cell that eats the rivet from the moment it gets wet, and a plated steel rivet stains the panel around every head. Stainless does neither, which is why it is worth the difference on anything exposed to weather or salt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBox contents (500 pieces total)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e100 x 3.2 x 8mm\u003cbr\u003e100 x 3.2 x 10mm\u003cbr\u003e100 x 4.0 x 8mm\u003cbr\u003e50 x 4.8 x 10mm\u003cbr\u003e50 x 4.8 x 12mm\u003cbr\u003e50 x 4.8 x 14mm\u003cbr\u003e25 x 4.8 x 16mm\u003cbr\u003e25 x 4.8 x 25mm\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrill the hole a touch over the rivet diameter so the body enters cleanly, and match the rivet length to the combined thickness of the material - too short and it will not form behind, too long and it buckles rather than clamping. A rivet is a permanent fixing: taking one out means drilling the head off, so where a panel will need to come away again use a rivet nut and a bolt instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuitable for\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVehicle bodywork and panels, marine and boat fitting out, trailers and towing gear, roofing, cladding and flashing, gutters and external metalwork, signage and fabrication, agricultural machinery\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso known as pop rivets, blind rivets, stainless rivets, rivets, dome head rivets, or a stainless steel rivet assortment box.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DH \u0026 JS Trading Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56776993800570,"sku":"AT178","price":47.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/2239\/6850\/files\/AT178.png?v=1775632673","url":"https:\/\/www.dhjstrading.com\/products\/500pc-assorted-box-of-stainless-steel-blind-pop-rivets-3-2-4-8mm","provider":"DH \u0026 JS Trading Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
