Value Collection C16134 Open End Blind Rivet 100 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C16134 is an open end blind rivet with a dome head, designed for fastening applications where access is limited to one side of the workpiece. The aluminum body pairs with a steel mandrel to deliver reliable clamping force across a grip range of 0.02 to 0.125 inches. With a body diameter of 0.1875 inches and a head diameter of 0.375 inches, this rivet suits sheet metal fabrication, HVAC ductwork assembly, and general structural fastening tasks. Installation is performed with a standard hand or pneumatic rivet tool. Each package contains 100 rivets.

This rivet is suited for light to medium-duty applications in residential and commercial settings. Common uses include HVAC duct and equipment panel assembly, electrical enclosures, sheet metal brackets, and general manufacturing or maintenance work. The dome head profile provides a low-profile finished appearance on the visible face of the fastened material. The 5056-grade aluminum body resists corrosion in typical indoor environments, and the phosphate-coated steel mandrel breaks cleanly at the set point.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a standard open end blind rivet for use in applications requiring a 0.192 to 0.196 inch diameter hole, compatible with standard hand, lever, and pneumatic rivet setting tools sized for 3/16 inch body rivets.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by sheet metal workers, HVAC technicians, electricians, and general maintenance trades using a hand or pneumatic rivet tool. Drill the workpiece to the specified hole diameter range of 0.192 to 0.196 inches using a wire gauge number 11 drill bit before setting. Ensure all material layers are clamped flush before inserting the rivet to achieve the rated grip and clamping load. Do not exceed the maximum grip range, as an undersized material stack will result in an improperly set fastener.
