Rivetking ABA66LF/P250 Blind Rivet Aluminum 5/8 in 250 Pack

Product Description

The RIVETKING ABA66LF/P250 is a Size 66 open end blind rivet with a large flange dome head, supplied in a 250-piece package. The body and mandrel are both aluminum alloy 5052, making this rivet a solid choice for lightweight assemblies where corrosion resistance matters. The body diameter is 3/16 inch (0.1875 inch), the head diameter is 5/8 inch, and grip range runs from 0.251 inch to 0.375 inch. Tensile strength is rated at 320 pounds and shear strength at 260 pounds. Licensed trades workers and sheet metal fabricators working on HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and light structural panels will find this a dependable stock fastener.

This rivet is well suited for joining thin sheet stock in residential and light commercial applications. Typical uses include HVAC duct fabrication, electrical panel assembly, signage, roofing trim, and general sheet metal work where a wide-flange head helps distribute load over thin or soft material. The 250-piece bulk pack is sized for service van stock or shop use. Installation requires a standard blind rivet tool sized for a No. 11 drill hole (0.192 to 0.196 inch hole diameter). The bright finish is suitable for indoor and protected outdoor environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a hand-operated or pneumatic blind rivet tool sized for a 3/16-inch rivet body. Drill the mating hole to the specified diameter range before setting the rivet - an oversized hole will reduce clamping force. Ensure all material layers are fully clamped together before pulling the mandrel. Spent mandrel stems should be collected and disposed of safely to avoid FOD hazards on the work surface.
