Rivetking ABA44LF/P100 Blind Rivet Large Flange 100 Pack

Product Description

The RIVETKING ABA44LF/P100 is an open end blind rivet with a large flange head, designed for fastening applications where standard flange coverage is insufficient. The body and mandrel are both aluminum, keeping weight low while providing adequate shear strength for light- to medium-duty assemblies. The body diameter measures 0.125 inches (1/8 inch) and the grip range spans 0.1875 inches (3/16 inch) minimum to 0.25 inches (1/4 inch) maximum, making it suited to thin-stack material combinations. This SKU ships in a package quantity of 100. Installed by sheet metal workers, HVAC technicians, electricians, and general contractors where a blind fastening solution is required from one side of the workpiece.

This rivet is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications involving aluminum, thin steel, plastics, and composite panels. Common install scenarios include ductwork assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, signage, gutters, flashing, and equipment panels. The large flange head distributes clamping load over a wider surface area compared to standard dome-head rivets, which reduces the risk of pull-through in softer or thinner base materials. The 3/16-inch to 1/4-inch grip range accommodates typical single- or double-layer sheet assemblies in the 0.1875- to 0.25-inch total stack range.

Key Features

• Open end design allows standard mandrel pull-through installation with a hand or pneumatic rivet tool
• Large flange head increases bearing surface to reduce pull-through in thin or soft substrates
• Aluminum body and aluminum mandrel provide corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and sheltered outdoor use
• 1/8-inch body diameter fits standard 1/8-inch rivet drill holes
• Grip range of 3/16 inch to 1/4 inch covers common thin-stack panel and sheet assemblies
• Packaged in quantities of 100 for job-site and shop use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style open end blind rivet compatible with standard 1/8-inch hand, pneumatic, or battery-powered rivet tools accepting this body diameter and grip range.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a rivet tool matched to the 1/8-inch body diameter of this fastener. Drill or punch the mating hole to the correct diameter before setting the rivet; an undersized hole will prevent seating and an oversized hole will reduce clamp load. Verify total material stack thickness falls within the 3/16-inch to 1/4-inch grip range before pulling the mandrel. Spent mandrel stems should be collected and disposed of properly to prevent FOD hazards in electrical or mechanical enclosures.
