Blind Rivets are multi-piece rivet assemblies, capable of being installed from one side of the workpiece. Traditionally, blind rivets were used on aircraft leading edges, trailing edges, and close out areas which are limited to access to one side of the structure. Current blind rivet usage has expanded to many additional areas of the aircraft and other mass producing industries in an effort to decrease labor expense and to address the ergonomic issues of solid riveting.

Advantages of "Blind" POP Rivets:-
The ability to set POP rivets without the need for access at the back of the work makes their use mandatory in many instances.However, their many additional advantages make POP rivets the logical choice in numerous applications where the blind rivet setting feature is not of primary importance, such as:-

•   Low in-place costs
•   Fast assembly
•   Low-cost, lightweight, easily portable tools
•   Vibration-proof assembly
•   No surface marring
•   Exceptional versatility
•   High grip and pull-up strengths
•   Tamperproof
•   Increased design flexibility

How They Work:-
A blind POP rivet consist of two parts: the rivet body and, within the setting mandrel. The POP rivet body is inserted in a hole in the materials to be joined. • The tool is actuated and the jaws of the power-operated or manual POP® rivetool grip the mandrel of the rivet. • The rivet is set by pulling the mandrel head into the rivet body, expanding it, and forming a strong, tight, reliable joint. At a predetermined setting force, the mandrel breaks and falls away.

Types of Rivets:-



Open End
Wide POP rivet range. Providing strong, low cost fastenings, open-end rivets are ideal for a wide variety of applications.

Closed End
Where fastenings have to be water or pressure tight, and 100% mandrel head retention is required.

Soft Set
Soft-Set POP Rivets incorporate a body and mandrel of special aluminum alloys.

MultiGrip
Wide grip range, ideal for use in inconsistent holes, reduced rivet inventory.

HR Rivet
High Retention Rivets for Metal and Plastic-to-Metal Applications

UltraGrip
Provide superior holding power over other high strength rivets.

T-Rivet
Designed for structural and similar high strength applications.

LSR (Load Spreading Rivet) POP Rivets
Rivet Designed especially for plastics and other brittle or soft materials

Easy Entry
Easy Entry Rivets line up odd shaped or misaligned holes in multiple sheets of material to make production easier and faster.

Grooved Rivet
Designed to set within a hole in fibrous materials such as wood. When the rivet sets, the body shortens and the fibres of the material are grasped between the closed grooves.

Peel Type Rivets
suitable for joining plastics, rubber, wood, GRP and laminates.
