Aluminium Peel Rivets – Dome Head Blind Rivets for Soft Materials

Aluminium peel rivets — dome head blind rivets whose body splits into four legs as it sets, folding back to spread the load over a wide area. That makes them ideal for soft, thin or brittle materials where an ordinary rivet would pull straight through.

Material
Aluminium body with a steel mandre

Head
Dome head for a clean, finished appearance

Peel action
The body opens into four legs on the blind side, greatly increasing the bearing area and clamping the material without cracking or splitting it

Type
Open blind rivet — set from one side with a hand or air riveter, no rear access needed

Best for
