Rivetking 15N50RFLAP/1100 Flat Aluminum Solid Rivet

Product Description

The RIVETKING 15N50RFLAP/1100 is a flat head aluminum solid rivet designed for permanent mechanical fastening in sheet metal, fabrication, and general assembly applications. Manufactured from Grade 1100 aluminum, this solid rivet measures 5/32 inch in body diameter with a 1/2 inch length under head. Solid rivets provide a strong, vibration-resistant joint that is well suited for structural and non-structural connections where reliability matters. This rivet is installed by deforming the tail end with a rivet set and bucking bar, making it a staple fastener in sheet metal shops, HVAC fabrication, and light industrial assembly work.

This flat head solid rivet is appropriate for residential and light commercial fabrication tasks where a low-profile head is required flush to or near the surface of the workpiece. Typical applications include ductwork fabrication, panel assembly, and general metal joining where aluminum is preferred for its corrosion resistance and workability. The flat head profile allows for smooth surface contact without protrusion, making it useful in applications where clearance is a concern.

Key Features

• Grade 1100 aluminum construction provides good corrosion resistance and easy driving
• 5/32 inch body diameter suits standard sheet metal and fabrication hole sizes
• 1/2 inch length under head accommodates typical material stack thicknesses
• Flat head profile delivers a low-profile, flush-friendly installation
• Solid rivet design creates a permanent, vibration-resistant mechanical joint

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitment solid rivet for applications requiring a 5/32 inch diameter flat head aluminum solid rivet with a 1/2 inch length under head.

Installation Notes

Solid rivets are installed by sheet metal workers, HVAC fabricators, and general maintenance technicians using a rivet set, hammer or pneumatic rivet gun, and a bucking bar to form the tail. Always drill or punch the hole to the correct clearance diameter for a 5/32 inch body rivet before installation. Ensure all material layers are clamped securely before driving to prevent joint movement. Follow applicable local codes and manufacturer guidelines for fastener spacing and edge distance in structural applications.
