It is designed for one-side fastening applications where access to the back of the work surface is limited or not possible. The body diameter is 0.125 inches, with a grip range of 0.126 to 0.187 inches and an accepted hole diameter of 0.129 to 0.133 inches. Tensile strength is rated at 150 pounds and shear strength at 120 pounds. The 5052 aluminum material grade and bright finish make this rivet suitable for a variety of light-duty structural and assembly applications. It meets IFI 114 Grade 11 standards and is sold in a quantity of 100 per package.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis rivet is used in residential and light commercial construction, HVAC ductwork fabrication, sheet metal assembly, electrical enclosure work, and general mechanical fastening. The open end design allows the mandrel to pull through cleanly during installation, expanding the body to clamp the work materials together. Electricians, HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and general tradespeople commonly use this size for thin-material panel and bracket assembly. The dome head provides a low-profile, finished appearance on the accessible face of the joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOpen end blind rivet design allows installation from one side of the workpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5052 aluminum body and aluminum mandrel for lightweight, corrosion-resistant fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrip range of 0.126 to 0.187 inches suits a range of material stack thicknesses\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTensile strength of 150 pounds and shear strength of 120 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDome head profile with 0.25-inch head diameter and 0.040-inch head height\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets IFI 114 Grade 11 fastener standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright finish; compatible with wire drill size 30\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard Size 43 open end blind rivet for use in applications requiring a 0.129 to 0.133 inch hole diameter; compatible with standard blind rivet installation tools that accept this body size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall using a hand-operated or pneumatic blind rivet tool rated for the appropriate mandrel diameter.
