Rivetking ABSM4X12PL100 Peel Blind Rivet 100 Pack

Product Description

The RIVETKING ABSM4X12PL100 is a peel blind rivet designed for structural fastening applications where one-sided access is the only option. The aluminum body and steel mandrel work together to deliver reliable clamping force across a wide grip range. When set, the body of the rivet peels outward into a flange, distributing the clamp load over a broader area than standard closed-end rivets. This makes it well-suited for softer base materials and thin-panel assemblies. The dome head profile sits flush to slightly raised and measures 0.315 inches in diameter. With a tensile strength of 325 pounds and shear strength of 324 pounds, this fastener holds up in demanding light-structural and sheet-metal work. Each package contains 100 rivets.

This rivet is used in residential and commercial construction, HVAC sheet-metal fabrication, electrical enclosure assembly, trailer and vehicle panel work, and general light manufacturing. The 5/32-inch body diameter and 0.157 to 0.315-inch grip range make it a versatile choice for joining aluminum, steel, or composite panels of varying thickness in a single blind-side pass. The zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and light-duty outdoor installations.

Key Features

• Peel design spreads load across a wider contact area, reducing pull-through in thin or soft materials
• Aluminum body with steel mandrel delivers a 325-pound tensile strength and 324-pound shear strength
• Wide grip range of 0.157 to 0.315 inches accommodates varying material stack thicknesses
• 5/32-inch body diameter fits a 0.165-inch hole for a tight, consistent installation
• Dome head profile with 0.067-inch head height provides a low-profile finish on exposed surfaces
• Zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance in light-duty environments

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard blind rivet tools accepting 5/32-inch rivets. Suitable for single-sided fastening of aluminum, steel, and composite panels within the specified grip range.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a hand, pneumatic, or battery-powered blind rivet tool sized for 5/32-inch rivets. Drill the mating hole to 0.165 inches for proper body fit before setting. Insert the rivet fully and actuate the tool in a single steady pull to seat the mandrel and peel the body. Inspect the set head on the blind side when possible to confirm full peel engagement before moving on.
