Value Collection 1570 Nylon Blind Rivet 1/2 in Head Black

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 1570 is a nylon-body blind rivet designed for fastening applications where corrosion resistance, electrical isolation, or lightweight construction is a priority. The rivet features a 1/2 inch head diameter and accepts material stacks ranging from 5/32 inch to 3/8 inch grip range, with a 1/4 inch hole diameter requirement. The nylon body makes it well suited for applications where metal-to-metal contact could cause galvanic corrosion or electrical conductivity concerns. Installers across HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and general trade applications use blind rivets when access is limited to one side of the workpiece.

This rivet is used in light-duty panel fastening, trim attachment, and component mounting scenarios where a non-metallic fastener is required. It is commonly installed in residential and light commercial settings, including electrical enclosures, plastic panel assemblies, ductwork trim, and similar thin-material applications. The black color blends with dark panels and plastic housings commonly found in equipment enclosures and control cabinets.

Key Features

• Nylon body construction provides electrical isolation and corrosion resistance
• 1/2 inch head diameter distributes clamping load across thin or soft materials
• 5/32 inch to 3/8 inch grip range accommodates a range of material stack thicknesses
• Requires a 1/4 inch hole diameter for installation
• Black color suits dark panel and enclosure applications
• Blind installation requires access from one side only

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or general-use nylon blind rivet for light-duty panel fastening in residential and commercial trade applications where a 1/4 inch hole and 5/32 inch to 3/8 inch grip range are required.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard blind rivet pull tool sized for a 5/32 inch mandrel. Ensure the mating hole is drilled or punched to exactly 1/4 inch for proper seating and pull strength. Verify that the total material thickness of the assembly falls within the 5/32 inch to 3/8 inch grip range before setting the rivet. Nylon rivets are not rated for high-shear structural loads; confirm the application load requirements before use.
