Value Collection 34119 Open End Blind Rivet Size 62 100 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 34119 is a Size 62 open end blind rivet with a dome head, aluminum body, and aluminum mandrel, sold in a 100-piece pack. Designed for one-sided fastening applications, this rivet installs using a standard blind rivet tool and expands on the blind side to clamp materials together without requiring access to the back of the joint. The body diameter is 3/16 inches, the head diameter is 3/8 inches, and the grip range spans 0.02 to 0.125 inches, making it suitable for thin material stacks. Tensile strength is rated at 320 pounds and shear strength at 260 pounds. The aluminum body and mandrel resist corrosion and keep weight low in the assembled joint.

This rivet is commonly used in sheet metal fabrication, HVAC ductwork assembly, enclosure manufacturing, and general light-to-medium industrial fastening. The dome head profile provides a low-profile, finished appearance on the visible face of the joint. Applications range from residential HVAC duct connections to equipment panels, electrical enclosures, and similar light-gauge metalwork where a blind fastener is required and only one side of the workpiece is accessible during assembly.

Compatibility

Designed for use in applications requiring a Number 11 drill size hole (0.192 to 0.198 inches diameter). Suitable for standard blind rivet installation tools accepting Size 62 rivets with a 3/16-inch body diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by sheet metal workers, HVAC technicians, or general fabricators using a hand-operated or pneumatic blind rivet tool. Drill or punch the hole to the correct diameter (0.192 to 0.198 inches) before installation to ensure proper expansion and clamping. Do not exceed the maximum grip range of 0.125 inches, as under-grip or over-grip conditions reduce joint strength. Ensure the workpiece is properly supported and clamped before driving the rivet.
