Value Collection C11462 Blind Rivet Size 610 100 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C11462 is an open end blind rivet designed for fast, one-side fastening in sheet metal, structural assemblies, and general fabrication applications. The aluminum body pairs with a steel mandrel to deliver reliable pull strength without added weight. Key mechanical ratings include a tensile strength of 500 pounds and a shear strength of 380 pounds. The dome head profile sits low and distributes clamping load evenly across the work surface. These rivets are packaged in a quantity of 100 and are suited for use by sheet metal workers, HVAC fabricators, electricians, and general contractors who need a dependable blind fastener for production or field work.

This rivet is used in applications where access to only one side of the workpiece is available. Common install scenarios include HVAC ductwork fabrication, electrical enclosure assembly, trailer and truck body work, and light structural panel attachment. The Size 610 designation indicates a 3/16-inch body diameter and 5/8-inch maximum grip range, making it appropriate for joining materials with a combined thickness between 0.501 and 0.625 inches. The 3/8-inch dome head seats flush enough for most panel applications without requiring a countersink.

Key Features

• Open end design allows the mandrel to set and break cleanly during installation
• Aluminum body with alloy grade 5056 for corrosion resistance in light-duty environments
• Steel mandrel with phosphate finish for reliable mandrel break at consistent pull force
• Dome head with 3/8-inch diameter and 0.060-inch head height for broad clamping coverage
• 500-pound tensile strength and 380-pound shear strength for solid joint integrity
• Accepts a Number 11 drill size hole for precise fitment and alignment

Compatibility

Designed as a standard open end blind rivet for use in any rivet gun or pneumatic rivet tool configured for 3/16-inch body diameter fasteners. Compatible with materials drilled to a hole diameter between 0.192 and 0.196 inches.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a hand, pneumatic, or battery-powered blind rivet tool rated for 3/16-inch rivets. Drill the workpiece to the specified hole diameter range of 0.192 to 0.196 inches using a Number 11 drill bit before inserting the rivet. Insert the rivet body fully into the hole, apply the setting tool, and pull until the mandrel breaks flush. Inspect each set rivet to confirm full mandrel break and adequate head seating before moving to the next fastener.
