Rivetking /ABS43-45LFMG/RT/P100 Blind Rivet 1/8 in 100 Pack

Product Description

The RIVETKING /ABS43-45LFMG/RT/P100 is an open end blind rivet designed for fastening applications where access is limited to one side of the workpiece. It features a large flange head, an aluminum body with a 1/8 inch body diameter, and a steel mandrel. The grip range runs from 0.157 inches minimum to 0.315 inches maximum, and the length under the head measures 0.468 inches. This rivet is sold in a package quantity of 100. It is installed by electricians, HVAC sheet metal workers, plumbers, and general tradespeople wherever a reliable blind fastener is needed on sheet metal, panels, or structural components.

This rivet is suited for light- to medium-duty fastening in residential and commercial construction, HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and metal panel assemblies. The large flange head distributes clamping load over a wider surface area, making it a good fit for softer base materials or oversized holes where a standard flange head would not seat properly. The aluminum body keeps weight low and resists corrosion in most indoor and moderate outdoor environments.

Key Features

• Open end design allows the mandrel to set a reliable mechanical lock through the full grip range
• Large flange head spreads clamping force to reduce pull-through in softer or thinner materials
• Aluminum body provides corrosion resistance and lightweight performance
• Steel mandrel delivers consistent setting strength during installation
• Grip range of 0.157 to 0.315 inches accommodates variable material stack thicknesses
• Package quantity of 100 units reduces reorder frequency on active job sites

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style blind rivet for use with standard 1/8 inch rivet tools in sheet metal, panel, and structural fastening applications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a hand-operated or pneumatic rivet tool sized for 1/8 inch body diameter rivets. Before installing, ensure the hole diameter matches the rivet body diameter and the material stack falls within the 0.157 to 0.315 inch grip range. Set the rivet until the mandrel snaps flush; inspect the upset head on the blind side for full flange contact. Do not reuse pulled rivets or attempt to reset a rivet after the mandrel has broken.
