Rivetking /XTJ218016SZ/P100 Semi Tubular Rivet 100pk

Product Description

The RIVETKING /XTJ218016SZ/P100 is a round-head semi tubular rivet made from zinc plated steel, sold in a package of 100. Semi tubular rivets feature a partial hole through the shank that reduces setting force compared to solid rivets, making them well suited for light-duty fastening applications where consistent clinch and moderate shear strength are required. The body diameter is 1/8 inch, the length under head is 1/2 inch, and the round head measures 7/32 inch in diameter. Zinc plating provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and light-duty environments. This rivet is installed using a standard rivet press or hammer and bucking bar.

These semi tubular rivets are used in light manufacturing, sheet metal assembly, leather goods, electrical panel fabrication, HVAC ductwork components, and general trade applications where a clean round-head profile is needed. The 1/8-inch body diameter fits hole diameters ranging from 0.084 to 0.09 inches. The 100-piece package quantity suits bench stock, field kits, and small-batch production runs. Typical installers include sheet metal workers, HVAC fabricators, electricians, and general assembly technicians.

• 1/2-inch length under head accommodates light-gauge material stacks
• Packaged in quantities of 100 for bench stock and small production use

Compatibility

Designed for use in applications requiring a round-head semi tubular rivet with a 1/8-inch body diameter and hole diameters between 0.084 and 0.09 inches. Suitable for light-gauge steel, aluminum, and similar sheet materials common in HVAC, electrical, and general fabrication work.

Installation Notes

Semi tubular rivets are set using a rivet press, pneumatic rivet setter, or hammer and set tool - verify tooling is sized for a 1/8-inch body diameter before setting. Ensure the mating hole diameter falls within the specified 0.084 to 0.09-inch range for a proper clinch; oversized holes will produce a weak joint. De-energize any electrical assemblies and follow applicable OSHA and NEC guidelines when installing fasteners in electrical enclosures or panel assemblies. Inspect the set head and clinch on each rivet for completeness before placing the assembly into service.
