Au-ve-co Products 14328 Plastic Panel Rivet 5mm Hole

Product Description

The AU-VE-CO PRODUCTS 14328 is a plastic panel rivet designed for securing panels, trim, and lightweight assemblies in HVAC, automotive, and general trade applications. Made from white plastic, this push-in style rivet fits a 5mm diameter hole and has an overall length of 16mm, making it suited for panel material thicknesses where a clean, flush fastener is needed. At 0.01 pounds per unit, the 14328 is a lightweight fastener that installs without tools in most applications, offering a quick and reliable method for panel attachment. Installation technicians, HVAC service pros, and trim installers commonly use this type of rivet where metal fasteners are impractical or where panel surfaces must remain undamaged.

This panel rivet is used in residential and light commercial settings wherever plastic or sheet panels require secure, non-permanent fastening. Typical applications include HVAC cabinet panels, equipment housings, interior trim panels, and access covers. The white color blends with standard white equipment enclosures and panels common in HVAC and appliance installations. This SKU is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 50 units, making it appropriate for stocking by service shops or contractors who install or service panel-heavy equipment regularly.

Installation Notes

Panel rivets of this type are installed by HVAC technicians, appliance service pros, and general trade contractors during panel reassembly after service. Power down and de-energize any equipment before removing or reinstalling access panels. Ensure the panel hole diameter matches the 5mm specification before installation to achieve proper retention. Do not force the rivet into undersized holes, as this may crack the plastic body and compromise fastener integrity.
