Rivetking. /TIN10LBUNP Steel Tinners Solid Rivet Flat Head

Product Description

The RIVETKING. /TIN10LBUNP is a flat-head tinners solid rivet manufactured from steel, designed for sheet metal joining and general fastening applications in trade and light industrial work. With a body diameter of 0.241 inches and a length under head of 0.479 inches, this rivet provides a low-profile, flush-seating connection suited to thin-gauge material assemblies. The flat head style distributes clamping load evenly across the material surface, reducing the risk of pull-through in sheet metal. Sheet metal workers, HVAC installers, and general contractors commonly use tinners rivets for ductwork fabrication, flashing, and light structural joining where a solid, permanent fastener is required.

This rivet is suited for residential and light commercial applications involving thin sheet metal, tin, and similar materials. Typical install scenarios include HVAC duct assembly, roofing flashing attachment, and general sheet metal fabrication where a solid non-blind rivet is preferred over a pop rivet for added shear strength. Its compact dimensions make it appropriate for tight-clearance sheet metal joints where access to both sides of the workpiece is available.

Key Features

• Flat head design provides a flush, low-profile seating surface on thin-gauge sheet metal
• 0.241 inch body diameter suits standard tinners rivet hole sizes in sheet metal work
• 0.479 inch length under head accommodates typical single or double-layer thin sheet metal joints
• Steel construction delivers reliable shear and tensile strength for permanent fastening
• Solid rivet design requires access to both sides of the workpiece, providing stronger joints than blind rivets in accessible assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style solid tinners rivet for use in standard sheet metal and ductwork fabrication applications requiring a 0.241 inch body diameter flat-head fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation requires access to both the head and tail sides of the workpiece; the tail is upset using a rivet set and hammer or pneumatic riveting hammer. Power down and de-energize any nearby electrical components before working in HVAC duct assemblies. Follow applicable SMACNA guidelines and local codes for sheet metal fastener spacing and joint construction. Always wear appropriate eye protection when driving or upsetting solid rivets.
