Rivetking. 12N25RFLAP/1100 Flat Aluminum Solid Rivet

Product Description

The RIVETKING. 12N25RFLAP/1100 is a flat head solid rivet machined from Grade 1100 aluminum, a commercially pure aluminum alloy known for its corrosion resistance and workability. With a body diameter of 0.125 inches and a length under head of 0.25 inches, this rivet is suited for light-duty fastening applications where material thickness is minimal and a flush or low-profile finish is required. Solid rivets require a bucking bar and rivet hammer or rivet gun to set, making them a reliable permanent fastening solution. Electricians, HVAC sheet metal fabricators, and general trade mechanics commonly use solid aluminum rivets in panel assembly, ductwork, and electrical enclosure work.

This rivet is used in residential and light commercial applications where aluminum fasteners are preferred to avoid galvanic corrosion with aluminum base materials. Typical install scenarios include thin-gauge sheet metal assemblies, ductwork flanges, electrical panel components, and similar structural or non-structural joining tasks. The flat head profile sits flush or nearly flush against the work surface, reducing interference with mating components or covers.

Key Features

• Grade 1100 aluminum construction for good corrosion resistance and ductility
• Flat head profile provides a low-profile finished surface
• 0.125 inch body diameter suits thin-gauge sheet metal and panel applications
• 0.25 inch length under head designed for shallow material stack-ups
• Solid rivet design creates a permanent, vibration-resistant joint

Compatibility

Designed as a standard solid flat head rivet for use in light-gauge aluminum sheet metal and panel assemblies where a 0.125 inch diameter hole and a maximum grip length within 0.25 inches is required.

Installation Notes

Solid rivets are installed by licensed sheet metal workers, HVAC technicians, and general tradespeople using a rivet hammer or pneumatic rivet gun paired with a bucking bar. Ensure the drilled hole diameter matches the rivet body diameter for a proper interference fit. Power down any electrical systems before fastening near energized components. Follow applicable codes and manufacturer assembly guidelines for the specific application.
