Rivetking. 18N37RUNAP/1100 Aluminum Solid Rivet 3/16 in

Product Description

The RIVETKING. 18N37RUNAP/1100 is an aluminum solid rivet designed for permanent fastening applications across a wide range of trade and industrial uses. With a body diameter of 3/16 inches and a length under head of 3/8 inches, this rivet provides a reliable mechanical joint in sheet metal, HVAC ductwork, equipment panels, and structural assemblies. Constructed from Grade 1100 aluminum, it offers good corrosion resistance and is well-suited for lightweight, non-structural fastening tasks where a solid, upset shank is required. It is installed by HVAC fabricators, sheet metal workers, plumbers, and general contractors using standard rivet setting tools.

This solid rivet is appropriate for residential and commercial applications where a permanent, flush or low-profile fastener is needed. Common uses include duct panel assembly, equipment enclosure fabrication, and general sheet metal work. The universal head style provides broad compatibility with standard rivet holes and countersunk or flat surfaces, making it a practical choice for repair and new-construction alike. It ships individually and is also available for multi-unit procurement.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style solid rivet replacement for general sheet metal, HVAC ductwork, and equipment panel fastening applications requiring a 3/16 inch diameter aluminum rivet.

Installation Notes

Solid rivets are installed by sheet metal workers and HVAC fabricators using a rivet set and bucking bar or automated rivet press. Always ensure the material stack thickness does not exceed the usable grip range before driving the rivet. Power down any associated electrical panels or equipment before accessing fastener locations on live systems. Follow applicable shop fabrication standards and local codes for structural versus non-structural fastening requirements.
