Rivetking ABS62/P500 Open End Blind Rivet Size 62 500 Pack

Product Description

The RIVETKING ABS62/P500 is an open end blind rivet designed for fastening applications where access is limited to one side of the workpiece. It features a dome head profile, an aluminum body in alloy grade 5056, and a steel mandrel with phosphate finish. The rivet body measures 3/16 inches in diameter with a 3/8 inch head diameter and accommodates a grip range of 0.02 to 0.125 inches. Tensile strength is rated at 500 pounds and shear strength at 380 pounds. This package contains 500 pieces. Installers in construction, manufacturing, HVAC fabrication, electrical enclosure work, and general sheet metal applications rely on this rivet for consistent, repeatable pull strength in aluminum-to-aluminum or aluminum-to-steel joints.

The ABS62/P500 suits residential and light commercial applications where a clean dome head appearance is required and structural blind fastening is needed. Typical use cases include sheet metal ductwork assembly, equipment enclosures, panel attachment, and light structural bracketing. The open end design allows standard pull-type rivet tools to set the fastener in a single operation without requiring rear access. Hole size should be drilled or punched to between 0.192 and 0.196 inches, corresponding to a wire gauge drill size of 11.

Key Features

• Open end design for standard pull-type rivet tool installation
• 5056 aluminum alloy body with bright finish for corrosion resistance in light-duty environments
• Steel mandrel with phosphate finish for consistent pull and break-off
• Dome head profile provides a flush, finished appearance on the visible face
• 500-pound tensile strength and 380-pound shear strength for reliable load-bearing joints
• Pack of 500 rivets for production or service volume use

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard pull-type blind rivet tools accepting 3/16 inch body diameter rivets. Suitable for materials within a grip range of 0.02 to 0.125 inches using a drilled or punched hole diameter of 0.192 to 0.196 inches.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a pull-type blind rivet tool sized for 3/16 inch rivets. Drill or punch the mating hole to the specified range of 0.192 to 0.196 inches before setting. Ensure the workpiece is fully supported and clamped to prevent material distortion during pull. Follow applicable fastener and fabrication standards for the specific assembly, and verify grip range compatibility with the total material stack thickness before setting.
