Value Collection 34115 Blind Rivet Size 42 Countersunk 100pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 34115 is an open end blind rivet with a countersunk head, designed for flush or near-flush installations in sheet metal, HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and light structural assemblies. The rivet body and mandrel are both steel with a phosphate finish on the mandrel for corrosion resistance. Body diameter is 0.125 inches (1/8 inch), grip range runs from 0.032 to 0.125 inches, and the head diameter measures 0.22 inches. Tensile strength is rated at 410 pounds and shear strength at 305 pounds, making it suitable for moderate-load fastening applications. Sold in a package of 100.

This rivet is appropriate for residential and light commercial installations where a low-profile head is required and access is limited to one side of the material. Common applications include HVAC panel and duct assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, and general sheet metal work. The countersunk head style seats flush with the work surface, eliminating protrusions that could interfere with gaskets, covers, or airflow paths. Installers working to IFI Grade 30 fastener standards will find this rivet meets that specification directly.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a standard blind rivet tool sized for 1/8-inch body diameter rivets. Power down or de-energize any equipment before fastening into electrical enclosures or live panels. Ensure hole diameter falls within the 0.129 to 0.133 inch range for proper mandrel pull and head seating. Do not reuse a rivet once the mandrel has been set and broken.
