Backup plates distribute the clamping load of a rivet across a wider surface area, preventing pull-through on thin, soft, or fragile base materials. Each plate sits on the blind side of the joint, behind the rivet mandrel, and spreads force evenly as the rivet sets. At 0.05 pounds per pack, these lightweight aluminum plates are easy to handle and store. They are a standard consumable for sheet metal, HVAC ductwork, and general fabrication work where joint integrity on soft substrates is critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese backup plates are used wherever a 3\/16-inch rivet must fasten into a material that cannot support the rivet head load alone — thin-gauge sheet metal, fiberglass panels, vinyl, plastic housings, and similar substrates. HVAC technicians use them when riveting duct panels or access doors. Sheet metal workers and general contractors reach for them on any application where pull-through is a concern. The 30-piece pack format suits job-site use and small-batch repairs without overstocking consumables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAluminum construction — lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and compatible with aluminum rivets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSized for 3\/16-inch blind rivets — the most common rivet diameter in HVAC and sheet metal work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDistributes clamping load to prevent rivet pull-through on thin or soft materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e30-piece pack quantity — practical for service calls and small fabrication jobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConsistent dimensions across the pack for repeatable, reliable joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 3\/16-inch blind rivets in standard rivet installation applications involving thin-gauge or soft substrate materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBackup plates are installed by a sheet metal worker, HVAC technician, or general fabricator using standard hand or pneumatic rivet tools. Place the backup plate on the blind side of the workpiece before inserting the rivet through the assembly. Ensure the plate is seated flat against the substrate so load is distributed evenly when the rivet is set. No power tools beyond the rivet gun are required, but eye protection should be worn during all riveting operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRivet Size Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity per Pack\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePack Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 045731028640\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: STANLEY\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: PBA6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"STANLEY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51347110953266,"sku":"PBA6","price":25.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310545475.jpg?v=1782097874","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/stanley-pba6-aluminum-rivet-backup-plates-3-16-in-30-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
