Marson MBP-R8-M13-PKT Structural Blind Rivet 25 Pack

Product Description

The MARSON MBP-R8-M13-PKT is a structural blind rivet designed for high-strength fastening applications where access is limited to one side of the workpiece. It features a protruding head profile with a steel body and steel mandrel, delivering reliable clamping force and shear resistance in demanding assemblies. The rivet body diameter ranges from 0.261 to 0.25 inches, with a grip range of 0.504 to 0.583 inches and a head diameter of 0.53 inches. This package contains 25 rivets, making it practical for both small jobs and repeat-use stockroom inventory. Licensed trades and fabricators working with structural connections rely on this rivet where conventional through-bolting is not feasible.

This structural blind rivet is suited for residential and commercial fabrication, HVAC ductwork assemblies, electrical enclosures, equipment panels, and general sheet metal work where a flush or protruding head fastener is required on single-side-access joints. The steel-on-steel construction makes it appropriate for applications demanding higher tensile and shear strength than standard aluminum blind rivets. It is commonly installed in panel fabrication, equipment housing assembly, and structural bracketing across mechanical and electrical trades.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style structural blind rivet for single-side-access fastening applications in sheet metal, panel, and structural assembly work where a steel body and steel mandrel rivet of this grip range is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a rivet tool sized for the body diameter of this rivet. Ensure the workpiece hole is properly sized and deburred before insertion to achieve full grip engagement and correct head seating. Disconnect all power or pneumatic supply from any equipment being fastened before beginning work, in accordance with applicable lockout/tagout procedures. Do not reuse mandrel stems or attempt to reset a rivet once the mandrel has fractured.
