Value Collection BDKP816 Peel Blind Rivet Aluminum 50-pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BDKP816 is a peel blind rivet with an aluminum body, sold in a pack of 50. Peel-type blind rivets are designed to fold back petals around the mandrel as they set, creating a wide, low-profile flange on the blind side that distributes clamping load over a larger surface area than standard break-stem rivets. This makes them particularly effective in soft, fragile, or thin-sheet materials where pull-through resistance is critical. The BDKP816 accommodates a grip range of 0.039 to 0.35 inches, handling a wide variety of material stack-up thicknesses in a single fastener. The black aluminum body suits applications where appearance or corrosion weight is a factor. Installation is performed with a standard manual or pneumatic rivet tool.

This rivet is suited for light-to-medium fabrication work in sheet metal, plastics, composites, and similar thin-panel assemblies. Common applications include HVAC ductwork panels, electrical enclosures, signage, equipment housings, and general sheet-metal assembly where access to the rear of the joint is restricted. The broad grip range of 0.039 to 0.35 inches makes it adaptable across multiple material thicknesses without requiring a separate fastener for each stack-up configuration. The pack quantity of 50 units supports production-volume work or service-van stocking.

Key Features

• Peel design folds back petals on the blind side for wide load distribution and pull-through resistance
• Grip range: 0.039 to 0.35 inches — spans a wide range of material stack-up thicknesses
• Aluminum body — lightweight and corrosion-resistant for sheet metal and panel applications
• Black finish for low-visibility or appearance-sensitive installations
• Compatible with standard manual and pneumatic blind rivet tools
• Pack of 50 units for production or service-stock use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style blind rivet for use in applications requiring a peel-type fastener with an aluminum body and a grip range of 0.039 to 0.35 inches; verify hole diameter and grip requirements against your specific application before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a standard blind rivet tool sized to match the rivet body diameter. Verify the material stack-up falls within the 0.039 to 0.35 inch grip range before setting. Drill or punch the pilot hole to the correct diameter for a snug body fit — an oversized hole reduces clamp load and pull-through strength. Set rivets with steady, controlled tool stroke; inspect the set petal on the blind side to confirm full flare before moving to the next fastener.
