Rivetking. 18N25RRDAP/1100 Solid Rivet Aluminum 3/16 in

Product Description

The RIVETKING. 18N25RRDAP/1100 is a round-head solid aluminum rivet designed for permanent mechanical fastening in light fabrication, assembly, and repair applications. With a 3/16 inch body diameter and a 1/4 inch length under head, this rivet is sized for thin-material joints where a clean, flush-driven connection is required. The alloy is Grade 1100 aluminum, a commercially pure aluminum grade known for its high ductility and ease of setting. It ships uncoated, making it suitable for applications where a natural aluminum finish is acceptable or where a secondary coating will be applied. Trade fabricators, sheet metal workers, and maintenance technicians are the typical installers of this fastener type.

This rivet is used in light-duty structural and non-structural joining of aluminum, sheet metal, and similar thin-gauge materials in residential and commercial fabrication contexts. Its compact dimensions make it well suited for tight clearance areas where access for a bucking bar is limited. The Grade 1100 aluminum composition provides good corrosion resistance in mild environments without requiring a surface finish. This part does not meet military specifications and is intended for standard commercial and industrial use.

Key Features

• Round head profile for standard flush-drive solid rivet installations
• 3/16 inch body diameter suited for light- to medium-gauge material stacks
• 1/4 inch length under head for thin-material joint clearance
• Grade 1100 aluminum alloy for high ductility and easy cold-setting
• Uncoated finish for natural aluminum appearance or secondary coating compatibility
• Does not meet military specifications - intended for commercial and industrial use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard commercial solid rivet for use in light fabrication, sheet metal assembly, and general repair applications requiring a 3/16 inch body diameter round-head aluminum fastener.

Installation Notes

Solid rivets are installed by sheet metal workers and general fabricators using a rivet set, bucking bar, and hammer or pneumatic rivet hammer. The material stack must be clamped and drilled to the correct hole diameter before driving. Always de-burr the hole and ensure proper grip length selection for the total material thickness being joined. Follow applicable fabrication codes and worksite safety procedures when operating pneumatic tools.
