Value Collection BDKP78947 Peel Blind Rivet 50 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BDKP78947 is a peel blind rivet designed for applications where a wide bearing surface and secure blind-side fastening are required. The large flange head distributes clamping load over a broader area, reducing pull-through in thin or soft materials. The aluminum body and aluminum mandrel keep weight low and provide adequate corrosion resistance for general-purpose use. With a grip range of 0.0625 inches minimum to 0.125 inches maximum and a head diameter of 0.25 inches, this rivet is suited to thin-material stacking. Each package contains 50 rivets.

This rivet is commonly installed in sheet metal assemblies, HVAC ductwork panels, light structural fabrications, enclosures, and trim applications where access to only one side of the workpiece is available. The peel design causes the mandrel to split the rivet body into multiple petals on the blind side, creating a wide footprint that resists pull-through in softer substrates such as plastic, fiberglass, and thin aluminum sheet. Trades that frequently use this rivet include HVAC installers, sheet metal workers, and general maintenance technicians.

Key Features

• Peel construction splits body on blind side for increased bearing surface and pull-through resistance
• Large flange head distributes clamping load to reduce surface damage on thin or soft materials
• Aluminum body and mandrel provide lightweight, general-purpose corrosion resistance
• Grip range of 0.0625 inches to 0.125 inches accommodates thin material stacks
• Head diameter of 0.25 inches for a broad seating footprint
• Sold in a 50-piece package for standard job-lot quantities

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose peel blind rivet compatible with standard 0.25-inch rivet holes and manual or pneumatic blind rivet tools that accept that mandrel diameter.

Installation Notes

Peel blind rivets are installed by sheet metal workers, HVAC technicians, and maintenance trades using a hand-operated or pneumatic rivet puller rated for the mandrel size. Drill or punch the mating hole to the correct diameter before insertion to ensure proper head seating and peel action. Verify that the total material stack thickness falls within the stated grip range before setting the rivet. Inspect each set rivet for a fully seated flange and confirm the mandrel stem has separated cleanly.
