Rivetking /XTM312016SZ/P100 Semi Tubular Rivet 100 Pack

Product Description

The RIVETKING /XTM312016SZ/P100 is a semi tubular rivet designed for light- to medium-duty fastening applications across metal fabrication, assembly, and general trade work. It features a round head profile and a zinc plated steel construction that provides corrosion resistance in typical indoor and sheltered environments. The body diameter is 9/64 inches, the head diameter is 5/16 inches (0.3125 inches), and the length under head is 1/2 inch. Accepted hole diameters range from 0.1 to 0.107 inches. This package contains 100 rivets. Installation is performed using standard rivet setting tools and is common in sheet metal, appliance, and enclosure assembly work.

These semi tubular rivets are suited for applications where a clean round head appearance is required on the visible face of the assembly. Typical use cases include joining thin sheet metal panels, plastic assemblies with metal reinforcement, and light structural brackets in HVAC equipment, electrical enclosures, and similar trade fabrication contexts. The semi tubular shank reduces the force needed to set the rivet compared to a solid rivet of the same diameter, making them practical for hand and pneumatic rivet setting tools in field and shop settings.

Key Features

• Round head profile provides a flush, finished appearance on the visible face
• Zinc plated steel construction offers corrosion resistance for sheltered environments
• Semi tubular shank requires lower setting force than a solid rivet of equivalent size
• Hole diameter range of 0.1 to 0.107 inches suits standard drilled or punched stock holes
• Package quantity of 100 rivets supports production and repetitive assembly tasks
• 5/16 inch head diameter distributes clamping load across the workpiece surface

Compatibility

Designed as a standard semi tubular rivet for use in sheet metal, appliance, and light structural assembly applications requiring a 0.1 to 0.107 inch hole diameter and a round head style.

Installation Notes

Semi tubular rivets are typically set using a rivet press, hand rivet setter, or pneumatic setting tool matched to the rivet head diameter and shank size. Ensure the mating hole is drilled or punched to the specified diameter range before installation. Deburr holes prior to setting to prevent material cracking and to ensure a consistent set. Do not attempt to set rivets with mismatched tooling, as this can result in an incomplete set or damaged workpiece.
