Rivetking ABS52-54LRTP250 Blind Rivet Large Flange 250pk

Product Description

The RIVETKING ABS52-54LRTP250 is a large flange head blind rivet designed for one-sided fastening applications in sheet metal, HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and general fabrication. The aluminum body pairs with a zinc-plated steel mandrel for reliable pull strength in mixed-material assemblies. At size code 52-54, this rivet accepts a 5/32-inch body diameter and grips material ranging from 0.047 to 0.276 inches. The package contains 250 rivets, making it a practical quantity for production runs or service van stock. Licensed tradespeople and fabricators use this fastener where access to only one side of the workpiece is possible.

This blind rivet suits residential and commercial HVAC fabrication, light structural sheet metal work, electrical panel assembly, and general metal joining tasks. The large flange head distributes clamping load over a wider surface area, reducing pull-through risk in thinner or softer base materials. A zinc-plated steel mandrel provides corrosion resistance appropriate for indoor and protected outdoor installations. Each rivet in this 250-count pack carries a tensile strength of 354 pounds and a shear strength of 198 pounds.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a rivet tool matched to the 5/32-inch mandrel diameter. Drill or punch the workpiece to a hole diameter between 0.160 and 0.164 inches before inserting the rivet. Inspect the set head and formed back-side head after installation to confirm full mandrel break and proper flange seating. Follow applicable sheet metal and structural fastening guidelines per NEC or local mechanical codes where the fastener is used in regulated assemblies.
