Rivetking. ABA612/P100 Open End Blind Rivet 6-12 100 Pack

Product Description

The RIVETKING. ABA612/P100 is a size 6-12 open end blind rivet designed for applications where access is limited to one side of the workpiece. The dome head profile sits flush against the work surface after setting, providing a clean, low-profile finish. The body diameter measures 3/16 inches, with a grip range of 5/8 to 3/4 inches. Both the rivet body and mandrel are aluminum, making this fastener well-suited for lightweight assemblies where corrosion resistance and weight savings matter. Sold in a package of 100 units.

Open end blind rivets in the 6-12 size range are commonly used in sheet metal fabrication, HVAC ductwork assembly, light structural panels, enclosures, and general trade work where a one-sided installation is required. The aluminum-on-aluminum construction is a standard choice for low-load, non-ferrous assemblies. HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and general contractors frequently use this rivet size when installing duct components, access panels, and light gauge assemblies in both residential and commercial settings.

Key Features

• Open end design allows installation from a single side of the material
• Dome head profile provides a clean, low-profile finish after setting

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 3/16-inch blind rivet tools and rivet guns. Compatible with pre-drilled holes sized for 3/16-inch body diameter open end blind rivets in aluminum, light steel, and similar substrates.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a hand-operated or pneumatic blind rivet tool sized for 3/16-inch body diameter rivets. Ensure the mating hole is drilled to the correct diameter before insertion. Select the rivet based on the total material stack thickness, confirming it falls within the 5/8 to 3/4 inch grip range before setting. After the mandrel breaks, inspect the set head on the blind side to confirm full engagement before applying load.
